same concepts appear in Chapter 2, and it is difficult to reconcile the two approaches. Chapter 2 includes a very good discussion of detection principles and instrumental configurations; and the discussions on standards for wavelength and intensity are especially relevant, having been written by the research group currently leading this effort. The third chapter, on FT-Raman, is essentially a review of work presented in Spectrochimica Acta. Although there is a great deal of value in FT-Raman measurements it should be quite clear that this technique is not a universal for all problems in Raman experiments. The chapter on Rcimsm mi~ croscopy nicely reviews thefieldfrom
