X-Ray Microscopy
Originally published in 1960 as part of the Cambridge Monographs on Physics series, this book looks at the physical principles behind the use of X-rays for microscopic investigation. Cosslett and Nixon review a variety of techniques used in X-ray microscopy, as well as specimen preparation methods. Many plates of various X-rayed materials are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of microscopy.
