Wave Propagation in Periodic Structures by L. Brillouin
Classic treatment of wave propagation covers a broad variety of problems with a common mathematical background, from solid state physics to propagation along electric lines, X-rays, rest rays, certain optical reflections, electrical engineering, and wave mechanics of the spinning electron. "Delightfully written." — Max Born. 131 illustrations. 1946 edition.
