Since the 3rd edition appeared, a fast evolution of the field has
occurred. The fourth edition of this classic work provides an
up-to-date account of the nonlinear phenomena occurring inside
optical fibers. The contents include such important topics as self-
and cross-phase modulation, stimulated Raman and Brillouin
scattering, four-wave mixing, modulation instability, and optical
solitons. Many new figures have been added to help illustrate the
concepts discussed in the book.

New to this edition are chapters on highly nonlinear fibers and and
the novel nonlinear effects that have been observed in these fibers
since 2000. Such a chapter should be of interest to people in the
field of new wavelengths generation, which has potential
application in medical diagnosis and treatments, spectroscopy, new
wavelength lasers and light sources, etc.
