This is the third, revised and extended edition of the acknowledged "Lectures on Quantum Optics" by W. Vogel and D.-G. Welsch. It offers theoretical concepts of quantum optics, with special emphasis on current research trends. The main new topics included in the revised edition are a unified concept of measurement-based nonclassicality and entanglement criteria, and a unified approach to medium-assisted electromagnetic vacuum effects including van der Waals and Casimir forces. The fundamentals of quantum optics are introduced in a sufficient depth for their practical application and for an understanding and treatment of specialized problems of modern research. The rigorous development of quantum optics in the context of quantum field theory and the attention spent to details make this a valuable book for graduate students as well as for researchers.
