Greetings All,
This is a somewhat odd request. I am currently teaching a course on the
history of microscopy, and I am trying to include information about the
personalities of the contributors to this extraordinary saga. I am
covering the span of time from about 1660 to the present. I thought I
would include some information about Robert Hoffman, the inventor of
modulation contrast microscopy, but beyond a brief conversation that I had
with him when I bought my system (in 1977), I have nothing to add. So, I
wonder if any of you have any memories or resources that you could
suggest. I would be most grateful.
Thank you very much.
BTW, if you are curious about the course, which is still a work in
progress, I'd be happy to share my outline.
