Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Principles of Microscopy: Being a Handbook to the Microscope
Every one who has to use the microscope must decide {for him self the question as to whether he will do so in accordance with a system of rule of thumb, or whether he will seek to supersede this by a system of reasoned action based upon a study of his instrument and a consideration of the scientific principles of micro s00pical technique. The present text-book has no message to those who are content to follow a system of rule of thumb, and to eke this out by blind trial and error. It addresses itself to those who are dissatisfied with the results thus obtained, and who desire to master the scientific principles of microscopy, even at the price of some intellectual effort.
