Excerpt from The Microscopist: A Manual of Microscopy and Compendium of the Microscopic Sciences
The progress of microscopic science may be well illus trated by a comparison between the present and former editions of this book. The author's intention was to place within the reach of the student of nature a com pendium of microscopy, free from unnecessary verbiage, which should aid in every department of natural sci.ence./ It is no small compliment to such a work that for a quarter of a century it should hold a place among works of reference, although surrounded by larger and more pretentious volumes. In order to meet the request of the publishers for another edition, it has been found necessary to rewrite the entire book,'and although the original design has been kept in view, the numerous additions to our science render considerable enlargement needful, notwithstanding the effort made to concentrate the material into the smallesti'ggmpass consistent with perspicuity.
