Excerpt from The Microscope and Its Revelations, Vol. 1It has been the Author's object throughout, to guide the possessor of of a Microscope to the intelligent study of any department of Biology, which his individual tastes may lead him to follow-out, and his indi vidual circumstances may give him facilities for pursuing. And he has particularly aimed to show, under each head, how small is the amount of trustworthy knowledge already acquired, compared with that which remains to be attained by the zealous and persevering student. Being satisfied that there is a large quantity of valuable Microscope-power at present running to waste in this country, - applied in such desultory observations as are of no service whatever to Science, and of very little to the mind of the observer,'-he will consider himself well rewarded for the pains he has bestowed on the production and revision of this Manual, if it should be tend to direct this power to more systematic labors, in those fertile fields which only await the diligent cultivator to bear abun dant fruit.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Microscope: And Its RevelationsThe rapid increase which has recently taken place in the use of the Microscope, - both as an instrument of scientific research, and as a means of gratifying a laudable curiosity and of Obtaining a healthful recreation, - has naturally led to a demand for infor mation, both as to the mode of employing the Instrument and its appurtenances, and as to the Objects for whose minute examination {t is most appropriate. This information the Author has endea voured to supply in the following Treatise in which he has aimed to combine, within a moderate compass, that information in regard to the use of his Instrument and its Appliances which is most essential to the working Microscopist, with such an account of the Objects best fitted for his study as may qualify him to comprehend what he observes, and thus prepare him to benefit Science whilst expanding and refreshing his own mind. The sale of three large Editions of this Manual, notwithstanding the competition of several cheaper and more popular treatises, with the numerous unsought testimonies to its usefulness which the Author has received from persons previously unknown to him, justify the belief that it has not inadequately supplied an existing want; and in the preparation of the new Edition now called-for, therefore, he has found no reason to deviate from his original plan, whilst he has endeavoured to improve its execution as to every point which seemed capable of amended treatment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
