Overview: First coherent account of a well-known approach to the problem of light scattering by small anisotropic particles.Includes supplementary material: The Mie theory is known to be the first approach to the electromagnetic scattering from homogeneous spheres endowed with all the accuracy of the Maxwell electromagnetic theory. It applies to spheres of arbitrary radius and refractive index and marks, therefore, noticeable progress over the approx­ imate approach of Rayleigh, which applies to particles much smaller than the wavelength. As a consequence, after the publication of the Mie theo
