Abstract

The objectives of the annual James L. Waters Symposium at Pittcon are different from those of other symposia at either Pittcon or other conferences. Waters, founder of the well-known Waters Associates, Inc., and currently president of Waters Business Systems, Inc., arranged with the Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP) in 1989 to offer an annual symposium at Pittcon to explore the origins, development, and commercialization of scientific instrumentation of established and major significance.

The topic of the tenth Waters Symposium, held in March 1999, was atomic emission spectroscopy, and is featured in this issue of the Journal.
