Zusatztext This new book, written by three distinguished scholars who worked together in Oxford during the 1990s, is in part a summation of their valuable contributions to the theory of electron diffraction and image formation in the TEM. It nicely complements other reference books that are available ... The serious electron microscopist will find it a sound investment. Informationen zum Autor L.-M.
