Description: This book describes the significant experimental progress made during the past decade. The author first studies superluminal group velocities that are not in conflict with special relativity and the role of quantum effects in preventing superluminal communication and violations of Einstein causality. The book examines the physics at the opposite ex
Review Quotes: "This book explores three modern topics of electromagnetic field propagation ... which are perhaps the most studied aspects of the field but also the most controversial. ... The author explains ... many issues very clearly ... . He is one of those rare scientific authors who is able to describe difficult subjects in a very straightforward and pedagogical manner. This book belongs on the nearest shelf of anybody who is working in electromagnetics, at either optical or lower frequencies." -Optics & Photonics News, June 2006
