I need to do course in nonlinear optics. Material of the course based on "Nonlinear optics" of Boyd 2ed. and all equations in CGS units.
Can anyone recomend other books on nonlinear optics in CGS unit (to avoid confusion), which contain same material as Boyd's Nonlinear optics? I hope that this will help me to better understand the material.
Thank you in advance.

As others have said, Yariv is an excellent choice. Depending on the applications you'll be discussing, I would also recommend A.C. Eckbreth's Laser Diagnostics for Combustion Temperature and Species.
I think Quantum Electronics by Amnon Yariv should be the bread and butter for every researcher in Optics and Photonics. This book will serve your purpose definitely. All the best.
optical waves in crystals by Yariv and Yeh gives a lot of the basics. I do agree with the first two reviewers as well.
