Excerpt from Practical Methods in Microscopy
This book, as originally written, was intended for begin ners working privately without the assistance of experienced instructors and without the apparatus Of a well-equipped laboratory. It was, therefore, thought best not to include processes which require expensive accessory apparatus and a considerable outfit of chemicals. The complicated processes necessary for the best results with delicate tissues were also Omitted as beyond the needs of the mere beginner and as likely to discourage him in his first efforts.
The favor with which the book has been received in the laboratories of several leading colleges has led to the addi tions which have been made in this edition to include the processes Of microscopic technique that are needed in such laboratories. While the book has been extended to meet the needs Of more advanced workers, it is believed that it is none the less adapted to the needs of beginners and private workers.
The author wishes to make especial acknowledgment Of indebtedness for suggestions to Professor Frederick C. New combe, Of the University of Michigan, and to Professor F.

Written for beginners and private workers, this book stands out from the crowd with its focus on simple yet efficient approaches to using a microscope. The author shares decades of experience using a variety of scientific tools for microscopic study. The book begins by explaining fundamental concepts like light refraction and how it's used in lenses. The anatomy of a microscope is subsequently described along with instructions for proper use and care. The book guides the reader through a series of practical exercises meant to test and develop understanding of the theoretical principles covered earlier.
