What reading level is Light book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They are due to Diffraction, and can be explained only by the help of the undulatory theory.
1 Mercurius in Sole visus. Gedani, 1662. The passage is quoted in full by Huygens in his treatise De Coronis et Parheliis, Leyden, 1703. 2 Journal de Vcole Poly technique, xviii. 1847.
CHAPTER XI REFRACTION IN A NON-HOMOGENEOUS MEDIUM 181. THE principles already explained are sufficient for the purpose of treating this question also. But they require for their application the artifice of supposing the m...edium to be made up of layers, in which the refractive index is the same throughout each layer, but finitely differs from one layer to another ; and then supposing these layers to become infinitely thin and infinitely numerous. In this case there will, of course, be only an infinitely small difference in properties between contiguous layers; and the abrupt changes of direction which accompany ordinary refraction are now replaced by a continuous curvature of the path of the ray. This artifice is successful, but not elegant.
