Unquestionably, as a society, we are suffering from an unfortunate lack of dietary fibre - a fibre famine, if you will. And while it is true that we are constantly assaulted with reports warning us that diets low in fiber can be very detrimental to our health, most of us persist in eating the way we always have. In this booklet, Rita Elkins, MH, clearly defines the importance of fibre in reducing the risk of cancer, improving the assimilation of important nutrients, and enhancing overall health.

A pulse of light spreads in time as it propagates in a fiber due to the physical phenomenon called dispersion. While dispersion can be deleterious in optical communications systems, it can also be exploited to manage the temporal and spectral shapes of pulses and their interactions with other pulses. Much of dispersion control is realized in optical communications systems with discrete devices – the so-called dispersion compensators, and almost all commercially deployed dispersion compensators today are based on specially designed fibers. This book addresses various aspects of this device te
