This book is about analytical modeling and understanding of material layers, composites, artificial materials and metamaterials. It explains electromagnetic properties of new artificial electromagnetic surfaces and metamaterials, especially size-dependent phenomena in materials, materials with predefined, engineered, and electrically controllable properties, backward-wave or double negative materials and novel prospective devices like, for example, the perfect lens.
