The Microscope: Its Construction and Management; Including Technique, Photo-Micrography, and the Past and Future of the Microscope (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Microscope: Its Construction and Management; Including Technique, Photo-Micrography, and the Past and Future of the Microscope
The Fourth Edition of this book had only just appeared when Mr. Wynne E. Baxter, a skilful English microscopist, honoured us by offering to publish an English Edition.
We cordially accepted Mr. Baxter's offer; but in the meantime the Antwerp Microscopical Exhibition has taken place, at which the best work of the most skilful manufacturers of the present day appeared. We were especially anxious that any English microscopist who might wish to read our treatise should have the advantage of the recent study which our position, as President Director of the Exhibition, has enabled us to make.
Materials accumulated to such'. An extent that we may now issue the present Volume, not as a 'translation of the Fourth Edition, but as being a really new Work - a Fifth Edition.
