Dr Tonomura passed away on May 2, 2012 at the age of 70. He was Fellow of Hitachi, Ltd., Group Director of Single Quantum Dynamics Research Group of RIKEN, Principal Investigator of the FIRST Tonomura Project, and Professor of Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book consists of: 1) contributions from distinguished physicists, who participated in the “Tonomura FIRST International Symposium on Electron Microscopy and Gauge Fields” planned by Tonomura himself and held in Tokyo on May 9–10, 2012, and 2) reprints of key papers by Tonomura and his team. Invited speakers at this Symposium include Chen Ning Yang and other distinguished physicists such as Yakir Aharonov, Gordon Baym, Christian Colliex, Anthony J Leggett, Naoto Nagaosa, Nobuyuki Osakabe and Masahito Ueda. This “memorial” Symposium was originally planned to commemorate the start of the Japanese-government-sponsored FIRST Tonomura Project to construct the 1.2 MV holography electron microscope capable of observing quantum phenomena in the microscopic world. In addition, the book includes contributions from participants of the past ISQM-Tokyo symposia held at Hitachi and from Tonomura's longtime friends, including Michael Berry, Jerome Friedman, Hidetoshi Fukuyama, Joseph Imry, Yoshinori Tokura, Jaw-Shen Tsai, and Anton Zeilinger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe co-editors are Kazuo Fujikawa, Tonomura's longtime friend, and Yoshimasa A Ono who is Tonomura's associate at Hitachi Advanced Research Laboratory and now in the FIRST Tonomura Project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Dream of Ultimate Holography Electron Microscope \u003ci\u003e(Akira Tonomura)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiography of Akira Tonomura (April 1942 – May 2012) \u003ci\u003e(Nobuyuki Osakabe)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonomura FIRST International Symposium on “Electron Microscopy and Gauge Fields” \u003ci\u003e(Yoshimasa A Ono)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRecollections of Akira Tonomura:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThank You and Farewell to Tonomura-kun \u003ci\u003e(Hidetoshi Fukuyama)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemembering Akira Tonomura \u003ci\u003e(Michael Berry)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAkira Tonomura: An Experimental Visionary \u003ci\u003e(Anton Zeilinger)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDr. Akira Tonomura: Master of Experimental Physics \u003ci\u003e(Kazuo Fujikawa)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGauge Theory and Aharonov-Bohm Effect:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTopology and Gauge Theory in Physics \u003ci\u003e(Chen Ning Yang)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn the Aharonov-Bohm Effect and Why Heisenberg Captures Nonlocality Better Than Schrödinger \u003ci\u003e(Yakir Aharonov)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the Test of Aharonov-Bohm Effect was Initiated at Hitachi Laboratory \u003ci\u003e(Nobuyuki Osakabe)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome Reflections Concerning Geometrical Phases \u003ci\u003e(Anthony J Leggett and Yiruo Lin)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm Interferometers: Decoherence and Thermoelectric Transport \u003ci\u003e(Ora Entin-Wohlman, Amnon Aharony and Yoseph Imry)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpin Textures and Gauge Fields in Frustrated Magnets \u003ci\u003e(Naoto Nagaosa and Yoshinori Tokura)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGauge Theory and Artificial Spin Ices: Imaging Emergent Monopoles with Electron Microscopy \u003ci\u003e(Shawn D Pollard and Yimei Zhu)\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo Dispersionless Forces Exist?
