Editorial Review:
This book is for those who have some knowledge of optics, but little or no previous experience in interferometry. Accordingly, the carefully designed presentation helps readers easily find and assimilate the interferometric techniques they need for precision measurements. Mathematics is held to a minimum, and the topics covered are also summarized in capsule overviews at the beginning and end of each chapter. Each chapter also contains a set of worked problems that give a feel for numbers.
The first five chapters present a clear tutorial review of fundamentals. Chapters six and seven discuss the types of lasers and photodetectors used in interferometry. The next eight chapters describe key applications of interferometry: measurements of length, optical testing, studies of refractive index fields, interference microscopy, holographic and speckle interferometry, interferometric sensors, interference spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform spectroscopy. The final chapter offers suggestions on choosing and setting up an interferometer.

Good For Beginners But Needs Beefing Up on Techniques 2007-01-01
Okay, this is a good primer for those who lack an adequate background in optics and lasers. The chapters will highlight the important concepts to understand interferometry. The lacking part is the actual discussion of various techniques which can be used for various materials. But, I would probably recommend this anyways since everyone needs a refresher. Otherwise, you should definitely read up on applications listed in the references. Hariharan has another book also on interferometry which is about the same but presented in a different light so to speak. This is a pretty standard technique so you will have no trouble to pick up where this textbook lacks. Also, you should really cover this short overview on optics by reading any undergrad textbook such as the Pedrotti text.
