Learning the electrooptic effect and modulation

[hen]

Hello!
I am a second year computer engineer.
I would like to learn about the electrooptic effect and electrooptic modulation.
Anyone have any GOOD links(prefferd) or names of books to learn the subject.
I really need some guidence for "simple" resources which i can learn from, without too many "pre-requests"...
I have the book of the "master" (Amnon Yariv) - "introduction to optical electronics", but its pretty difficult for me.
Mostly, i don't understand for now all the "ellipsoid" material...
Thanks a lot.

Try "Lasers and Electro-optics" by Davis. I found it pretty easy to follow in my second year at University.
