Review: The Bible - Need I say more? This book is the de facto standard for designing DPSSL systems. It covers a broad range of topics without being overly equation based. It covers military hardened resonator designs, it covers Q switching, it covers some flashlamp designs, it covers driver design, it covers thermal management and goes on and on and on. This is the Gospel according to Koechner... This book has aided my career as a laser engineer more than I can speak to. Thanks Walter, hopefully some day we get to meet. Matt
Review: Maddeningly peppered with errors but indispensable - Where to begin on the errors that have propagated through so many revisions? Equations are incorrectly referenced in the text some figures have problems. See fig 8.30, p513 5th revision where the curves Xopt and Yopt appear to be switched for just one example. The best part about the book is the summary of materials and the references, which you often need. My personal note to Mr. Koechner: Dear kind sir, please publish errata for this book. I mean no disrespect, it is the best reference of its kind. However, it could be improved substantially.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by W***L on June 7, 2012*

... ist dieses Buch, für jeden der sich in die Thematik der Lasertechnik einlesen will. Ich vermisse ein wenig den Bezug zur Realität (Bauteile, exakte Anordnungen von optischen Bauteilen und deren Spezifikationen), aber das ist eben typisch für solche Literatur. Es klingt immer ein wenig wie eine Patentschrift: Möglichst viel reinschreiben, aber nur keine Details ;-))
