Summary: On lateral/head wave in p.97...
Review: The terms "lateral wave" and "head wave" for the surface wave (in p.97 regarding Eq.(2.6.5)) are quite misleading. Consult other texts for the concept of the lateral wave and head wave.

Summary: On lateral/head wave in p.97...
Review: This intermediate-level graduate text provides a remarkably clearly thought out exposition of electromagnetic propagation in inhomogeneous media. This book is well-written, thoughtfully conceived, and carefully edited. Dr. Chew has achieved the ideal pedagogical balance of developing and integrating key concepts and detail without spoonfeeding material. While there are no shortage of equations and mathematical derivations, the reader will be hard-pressed to find any errors or typos. (I found a single equation typo in all of Chapter 2; the book has evidently been meticulously edited.) Great book!
