"This book’s comprehensive coverage of different sources and applications provides an excellent textbook for students as well as a reference for experienced practitioners in the field of high power microwaves."
—Ronald M. Gilgenbach, Department Chair and Collegiate Professor of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

"Congratulations to the authors who have kept up with the ever-advancing research in high power microwaves (HPMs). This new edition has expanded chapters pretty much across the board, and the addition of NLTLs to the fold is greatly appreciated. Already a classic in the HPM field, the current edition keeps its high standard and is useful for graduate teaching as well as a general reference for the HPM designer/researcher."
—Dr. Andreas A. Neuber, AT&T Professor ECE and P.W. Horn Professor ECE, Texas Tech University

"I strongly endorse the third edition of High Power Microwaves by J. Benford, J. Swegle, and E. Schamiloglu. The first edition of this book appeared in 1992 and the second one in 2007. These books are quite unique in the sense that they combine a reasonably extensive description of high power microwave (HPM) sources (their physical principles, technical accomplishments, and trends) with detailed explanation of various applications of these sources. Special attention is paid to HPM systems and the components that should be added to the sources for systems’ reliable and successful operation. This unified, coherent presentation of everything from the fundamentals to the latest developments makes these books extremely useful for everyone working in the field of HPMs. The third edition updates this integrated description of the broad technical area of HPMs to 2015, just filling the gap of the decade after the second edition; the additional material, in particular, describes the increasing activity in Asia.
