Intended for a non-specialist audience, this work examines the physical principles underlying the workings of clocks, from the earliest mechanical clocks to the present-day sophisticated clocks based on the properties of individual atoms. The book examines the revolutionary changes that the optical laser has wrought on atomic standards through laser cooling and optical pumping, and it discusses the applications of these clocks to global navigation, particularly GPS and Loran.
