About this title

Synopsis

The publication of this dictionary encompassing the terminology of all types of microscopes and of various aspects of microtechnique fills a major communications gap in an area of scientific research and instrumentation that has evolved over more than 350 years. The reader will discover all the key concepts linked to optical, electron, phase-contrast, polarizing, and other types of microscopes, as well as many terms related to the preparation of specimens for examination under the microscope, including microtomy, staining, and fixation.

Translators and terminologists will find in this dictionary such useful features as definitions, synonyms, cross references, and bibliographic sources, a separate listing of acronyms and abbreviations, and French and German indexes. As a multilingual tool, this dictionary contains features that language specialists have come to expect: definitions and bibliographic sources. As a technical work, it brings order and coherence to a multitude of terms and expressions from a broad spectrum of scientific and technical disciplines.
