I want to thank the IOP family widely for this opportunity, the fact that you have believed in our own abilities and merits comforts us greatly, the feat of consolidating a project of authentic knowledge and intertwining it with the classic always brings with it a challenge of unknown magnitude. Through this second work, what is rightfully true is reaffirmed. Optical design will never be the same.

I am particularly grateful to Professor Dr R Barry Johnson, editor in chief of the series, Ashley Gasque for all the support she gave us and Robert Trevelyan for his diligent instructions, without them this project would still be in process.

Beyond family and friend thanks, I want to thank prospectively all those who will enjoy this work, either designing optical systems or consuming all the technology that at some future time will be developed based on this knowledge.

I hope with fervor that this final result is an incentive to improve the quality of life for all, the greatest thanks is for those who, through their mastery of knowledge, make a moment of existence something comforting and pleasant.

I thank you, dear readers, for the patience and the decision to read our work; in fact the number of equations and their procedures are not trivial matters, however, with discipline and responsibility they can be mastered with such ease that their magnitude becomes ephemeral and despicable. Among the greatest difficulties that we have had to face, Rafael, is the fact that currently there are very few people who enjoy this knowledge—I hope that soon you can open debate with us and with this continue creating a model of Nature with a concrete and consistent theoretical basis.

I thank all those institutions that support the full development of their populations, all those governments that try to use reason and avoid the repression of free thought.

This book is a tribute to our time, nowadays the role of the scientist is frequently confused in the teaching market, I thank all those who do not give up on their scientific thinking and much less stop creating ideas.

Father, mother, brother and Rafael, thanks again for facing the challenge as a team, without this link many projects would not have been possible, only a just goal makes the difficulty lessen, we again achieved it.

Finally I thank all those people who will use this knowledge to build a better humanity, a peaceful life and a reason for existence!
