[Ifeffit] 2007 NSLS XAFS workshop: save the date

[Scott Calvin]

Hi Matthew,

Heh. Although this doesn't help you, I figure I'll take this 
opportunity to give a brief plug for my own project.

I am in the beginning stages of developing a textbook "at the 
undergraduate level" on EXAFS analysis (primarily; I plan chapters on 
XANES, sample preparation, etc. as well). "At the undergraduate 
level" is in quotes because it's really not what I envision as the 
primary audience. Instead, it's for more or less the audience that 
takes the short courses: people who want to add EXAFS as a 
characterization technique in their arsenal, understand what they 
read about it in the literature better, and the like. In those cases, 
I don't think people need to know the ins and outs of Green's 
functions, for instance.

Unfortunately, it won't be done for several years. :(
