Excerpt from The Micrographic Dictionary: A Guide to the Examination and Investigation of the Structure and Nature of Microscopic Objects
Many valuable contributions to our knowledge of the structure or functions of microscopic organisms are probably lost, through the inability of microscopic observers to ascertain readily the name and position in Nature of objects Which fall under their notice. It is hoped that the very numerous illustrations to this work will form a valuable guide in such cases, and render the descriptions of microscopic animals and plants, of minute structures, tissues, &c., which form the main body of the volume, a real Dictionary of objects. At the same time it is not unreasonable to expect that much advan tage may be derived, from the attention that has been paid to directing observers to subjects and disputed points on which new information is desirable.
