This book describes Raman microscopy and its applications to the analysis of materials. It contains ten chapters contributed by eighteen authors. The editors and authors are all eminent Raman microscopists and many of them have a link with the Raman group at Lille which led the field in the infancy of this technique. There are contributions from Professors Delhaye and Dhamelincourt, who were responsible (along with Dr Etz in the USA) for the discovery and public scientific awareness of the potential of the subject over 20 years ago. At that time, the marriage of one of the oldest pieces of scientific apparatus, the microscope, to one of the newest, the visible laser, was completely novel in concept.
