Book Overview

This book is a monograph on the topic of double refraction, a phenomenon in optics whereby a single light ray is split into two rays of differing polarizations. The author explains the theory of French physicist Augustin-Jean Fresnel, who proposed a model to explain this phenomenon involving the existence of two rays with perpendicular polarizations. The book includes mathematical derivations and some discussion of experimental evidence.
