Excerpt from The Microscope and Its Revelations, Vol. 1The 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 recrea tion, - has naturally led to a demand for information, both as to the mode of employing the Instrument and its appurtenances, and as to the Objects for Whose minute examination it is most appropriate. This information the Author has endeavored 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 essen tial to the working Microscopist, with such an account of the Objects best fitted for his study as may qualify him to comprehend what he oh serves, and thus prepare him to benefit Science whilst expanding and refreshing his own mind. The sale of five large Editions of this Manual, with the many spontaneous 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 prepa ration of the new Edition now called-for, therefore, he has found no rea son to deviate from his original plan, whilst he has endeavored to improve its execution as to every point which seemed capable of amended treat ment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
