InTech - Open access publisher of Scientific Books and Journals

Founded in 2004, InTech is a open access book (and some journals) publisher covering the field of science and technology. Since then, they have published already over 550 books with over 2.5 millions of downloads (counting the chapter downloads). In 2010 its publishing program was expanded into the field of medecine.

Concerning the field of Optics and Lasers, 16 books have been published so far. Although the titles of the books sounds general, the chapters are already dedicated to a specific research topic, which makes it not very suitable for non-expert who are looking for an overview or introduction. However, if you work in the same field, it is probably worth to have a look into it.
