Industry Reviews

"This book presents a number of laser accident-prone situations and discusses many safety precautions, including the use of virtual reality, to avoid hazards caused by lasers. Being a Laser Safety Officer for many years, the editor has included his own views as well as the views of others in this book. This book is a useful guide for researchers and industrial laser users. Even a common reader will find this book informative and interesting."
