Excerpt from The Microscope: A Practical Handbook
The chapter on section cutting and mounting has been considerably enlarged, so as to enable the student to gain some knowledge in the preparation of his own specimens.
It has been my aim in rewriting this work to extend its usefulness, and to provide an elementary text-book, which will prove Of assistance, not only to the amateur, but to the medical and biological student, in seeking to learn the preper use of the microscope, which is essentially an instrument of the utmost precision.
I have to thank Messrs. Baker, Beck, Leitz, Ogilvy, Watson, Swift and Zeiss for the loan of numerous 'blocks,_ and also Dr. J. A. Murray and Mr. W. Pilgrim for kindly making a number of drawings.

Excerpt from The Microscope: A Practical Handbook
"But the greatest error of all is, mistaking the ultimate end of knowledge; for some men covet knowledge out of a natural curiosity and inquisitive temper, some to entertain the mind with variety and delight, some for ornament and reputation, some for victory and contention; many for lucre and a livelihood, and but few for employing the Divine gift of reason to the use and benefit of mankind." - Lord Bacon.
