Additional Reading
An informative work on the history of the electron microscope is Ernst Ruska, “The Development of the Electron Microscope and of Electron Microscopy,” Reviews of Modern Physics 59(3/1):627–638 (July 1987), in which the birth and growth of electron microscopy are recounted by its founding father. A general survey of the subject, with details on features and applications, is found in T.G. Rochow and E.G. Rochow, An Introduction to Microscopy by Means of Light, Electrons, X-Rays, or Ultrasound (1978). A wide-ranging and well-illustrated introduction to electron microscopy, suitable for beginners as well as for the more-advanced, is offered in I.M. Watt, The Principles and Practice of Electron Microscopy (1985).
