About this book
Reviews
The book ... is the only monograph currently available which treats the whole range of modern optical technology of reflecting telescopes in a comprehensive way.
... Special topics can easily be found with the help of the extensive name and subject indices, and thanks to the long list of references, the book is an entry point for more detailed studies.
... The book should also be of interest for more ambitious amateur astronomers.
... With the extensive name and subject index this volume should also be useful as a reference book.
