What is it about?

It is a recommendation to read other people's work on an exact solution of the dipole photon-matter interaction: the rabi-Hamiltonian.

Why is it important?

The recommended work offers an exact treatment of the rabi model; it will receive a similar importance for the future physics community as the exact solution of its rotating wave approximation was for quantum optics.

Perspectives

This article may direct attention to people eager to perform further possible work in quantum optics. One can try to review several standard calculations in quantum optics that at the moment heavily depend on the rotating wave approximation. This actually embraces basically the field as a whole.
