Excerpt from Botanical Microtechnique: A Hand-Book of Methods for the Preparation, Staining, and Microscopical Investigation of Vegetable Structures

The methods brought together in the present volume are, of course, chiefly taken from the literature. Scattered through various original papers and text-books. But the author has always endeavored, so far as possible, to reach an opinion from his own experience concerning the methods described; and many of the details and modifications of previous methods contained in the book are due to his own investigations.

However, the literature used has been as fully quoted as possible at all points, in so far as it seems of present value. Works of merely historical interest are not referred to, since the book is designed only for practical use.

If the writer has overlooked many statements of value, it is to be hoped that it will be understood and pardoned by those familiar with the immense extent of botanical litera ture, especially in recent years. The author will be grateful to any one who will call his attention to such omissions.
