Synopses & Reviews
An introduction to the principles of transmission electron microscopy; the only book written specifically for geologists and mineralogists.
Review
"...a welcome addition to the literature....is suitably authoritative and comprehensive....a very fine book, with many unique and worth-while features....will prove to be invaluable to any worker in the field, and should be in every Earth Science library." David Price, Geological Magazine
