This graduate-level text's coverage includes the quantum theory of partial coherence and the nature of the relations between classical and quantum theories of coherence. Topics include partially coherent light, photoelectric counting distributions, dynamical determination of statistical description, and equations of motion and coherent-state representation of the electromagnetic field. 1968 edition.
Unabridged republication of the edition published by W. A. Benjamin, New York, 1968.
