The book systematically progresses from the basic physics of light to the diverse types of holograms, including computer-generated holograms. It uniquely emphasizes holography's transition from a novelty to a practical tool, offering real-world examples in diagnostic imaging, anti-counterfeiting measures, and interactive entertainment.
By connecting holography to optics, computer science, and materials science, Hologram Science demonstrates its multifaceted nature and potential for innovation.
