Practical Optics for the Loboratory and Workshop

Practical Optics for the Laboratory and Workshop, originally published in 1922, provides a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of optics. Intended for use in both laboratory and workshop settings, this book delves into the practical aspects of optical instruments and techniques. B. K. Johnson presents detailed explanations and instructions suitable for students, researchers, and technicians working with optical systems.

The book covers a range of topics, including the properties of light, the construction and use of lenses and prisms, and the design of optical instruments. It offers valuable insights into the methods employed in the early 20th century for optical experimentation and instrument making. This book remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of optics and the practical application of optical principles.
