The Microscope: Theory and Practice

A fascinating first edition on contemporary miscroscope use. First edition. In the publisher's original maroon cloth binding. Resourcefully illustrated with a number of figures in the text. The author's third microscopy work, following the success of two previous volumes. The present work contains a revised introduction to practical miscroscope use, with details on geometric optics, aperture and resolution, photometry and typical and special purposes. A publication from the prominent optical manufacturing company R & J Beck. In the publisher's original maroon cloth binding. Previous ownership signature to the front free endpaper. Externally, very smart with slight bumping and rubbing, leading to minor loss of cloth, particularly to the spine tail. Further sunning along the spine and the odd mark to the boards. Internally, firmly bound. Bright and clean with the exception of heavier spotting to the first and last few pages. Very Good Indeed.
