When I first saw this book I thought "Oh not another book on Fibre Optics" but even though the second chapter goes a little too deep into the theory and mathematics for my liking, the historical background in the preceding Chapter more than made up for it!! I also liked the chapters describing the various types of fibre and future developments forseen for this technology. The only thing that (slightly) annoyed me was the misspelling of fibre - but then the book might have been aimed at the American Market?
