Abstract
In 1967 I gave in London an after-dinner talk about “the early vicissitudes of electron probe x-ray analysis.” At this time, it was already an old story; now, it looks like prehistory. I hope the reader will pardon me for evoking here, as an introduction to a series of papers which will illustrate the present state of the art in that field, the reminiscences of an old-timer.
