Sinopsis
A practical guide to the microscope and essential lab techniques for biology students. This early-20th‑century manual explains how to choose and use microscopes, oculars, and objectives, and it guides readers through tissue mounting, embedding, staining, and drawing and photographing specimens. It also covers photo‑micrography setup, lighting options, and the integration of instruments into a coherent teaching lab. Written to help beginners build a solid foundation, the book teaches clear, actionable steps that support hands‑on learning in biological investigation.
With detailed chapters on equipment, specimen preparation, staining methods, and the basics of microphotography, the book presents practical procedures alongside the rationale behind common techniques. It emphasizes reliable, well‑made instruments and careful use of lighting and optics to achieve accurate results, making it a useful reference for students and instructors building a well‑equipped biology laboratory.
- Guidance on selecting microscopes, objectives, and oculars for starting work
- Step‑by‑step approaches to tissue prep, embedding, and mounting
- Staining, fixation, and sectioning techniques with practical notes
Ideal for readers beginning their studies in biology labs and courses that rely on microscopy and micrographic methods.

Reseña del editor
Excerpt from Biological Laboratory Methods
In the preparation of this book the author has also been guided by what seemed to be the average advancement Of the students who report from year to year for admission to the scientific courses in the Alabama Polytechnic Institute. The topics treated in the following pages have not been greatly elaborated, but the discussions have been conducted far enough to give something more than simply suggestions and outlines. It is expected that the student will build only the foundation in the study Of this book, but it is hoped by the author that the information contained herein will be the incentive for inducing the student to extend his investigations in the domain Of bio logical science until he becomes proficient in research and is able to contribute to the knowledge of the subject.
In writing this book liberal use has been made Of the stand ard works relating to microscopy and to histology, and much valuable information has been secured from the papers and periodicals devoted to the science of biology.
The following firms have placed the author under Obliga tions for permission to use electroplates from which some of the illustrations have been produced: Bausch Lomb Opti cal Company; Carl Zeiss Company; Eastman Kodak Com pany; Buffalo Dental Manufacturing Company; and Rochester Optical Company.
