Magical Display: The Art of Photomicrogaphy is a selection from more than 40,000 photographs taken through a microscope: everyday realities like vitamins, flavors and fragrances, sweeteners, pharmaceuticals, and hormones, as well as moon rocks, superconductors, and creatively imagined landscapes. Augmented by illumination, the microscape reveals the hidden beauty and elaborate design of our reality, a magical display of shape and form. Magical Display includes over 115 color images of the highest quality. Topics include how to set up a microscope, photomicrography, preparation of samples, and creative photomicrography. -- Midwest Book Review
