In the preface to X-rays and Electrons it was possible to write,"Perhaps no single field of investigation has contributed more tcour knowledge of atomic structure than has the study of x-rays."The developments of the intervening years have emphasized this keyposition. We had then just shown with x-rays that radiation has thecombined characteristics of waves and particles. I t has since beenfound that electrons, protons and atoms likewise have these dualproperties, thus forming the experimental basis of the principle ofuncertainty, with all its fundamental implications. In the diffraction of x-rays we have found direct methods of observing the averagepositions and motions of electrons in atoms and of the thermal motions of atoms in crystals and molecules, establishing the correctness of the main predictions by the new quantum mechanics.
