Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Use of the Microscope: Including the Different Methods of Preparing Examining Animal, Vegetable, and Mineral Structures
It was, at first, the intention of the writer to have included in the present Treatise the methods of dissecting and injecting, as well as many very important matters, purely of an anato mical nature; but he has found it advisable to defer these and all others relating exclusively to physiological science to a separate work, which he hopes at a subsequent period to lay before the medical profession, to whom the Microscope has now become indispensable as an educational instrument.
