We attempt a brief and broad overview and historical perspective of
the theory of lightwave propagation in dielectric waveguides. This
is a subject that is now documented by extensive literature. As our
review task is limited by constraints in both space and time it will
be illustrative rather than comprehensive. The illustrations are
intended to highlight the principal concepts and theoretical approaches
and refer the reader to the literature for detailed derivations and
explanations. Our story celebrates a theory with a proud history
of nearly 100 years, vibrant and rich in new ideas, and serving as
the base for an increasing number of powerful applications.
