The 1987 second edition of Walter C. McCrone's Asbestos Identification, published by the McCrone Research Institute, Chicago. The first edition appeared in 1980 as the Asbestos Particle Atlas. Written as the textbook for the Institute's asbestos identification courses, it teaches how to identify asbestos and look-alike fibers, chiefly in building insulation, by stereo and polarized light microscopy with dispersion staining. The author argues that light microscopy is the only practical method for bulk and most air samples, and that TEM is needed for water samples.
