About This Book

A practical handbook for novice microscopists explains instrument development, optical principles, illumination techniques, and simple and compound microscope use, with advice on improvised and accessory apparatus. It surveys microscopic plant and animal structures—cells, tissues, pollen, algae, diatoms, insects, pond and marine organisms—and describes methods for collecting, preparing, mounting, staining, and photographing specimens. Organized into concise chapters with numerous illustrations, it emphasizes hands-on guidance, measurement, drawing, and preservation techniques to enable careful observation and study of common microscopic objects.
