It is strange, this book doesn't get good review at Amazon.com. But this is one of my favorite TEM books. I read the original Reimer's book. I haven't get my hands onto this new version yet.
This book is for the "curious" minds, by which I mean all the physists and those always want to learn "why". In this aspect, this book is probably the best we get so far. Not yet good enough though. I am hoping we can create the "super-why" books on TEM (as well as other topics) at this site.
A TEM book list without this monumental book is not justifiable. This book was considered to be the "bible" of TEM by many old TEM folks. Some still believe it is. This book laid out the fundamentals of TEM theory. Its in depth description of electron diffraction and image formation theory is still probably the indispensable if you want to understand the in-and-out of the TEM theory.
This is the text book (earlier version) I used to study on SEM and microprobe analysis. It is the "bible" of SEM. Everything you need to know about SEM is in this book.
It covers almost everything and yet easy to follow. If you want to become an expert in SEM, you want to read this book.
