Master the microscope with a practical, student‑friendly guide to cellular and tissue anatomy. This classic histology manual organizes its lessons to save study time and boost observation skills. It blends clear instructions with illustrated examples and emphasizes drawing as a tool for understanding, not just a requirement. The book guides you from broad overviews to detailed structures, so you can build a solid foundation in histology while developing accurate, lab‑ready techniques.
The text opens with guidance on how to plan and pace your laboratory work, then walks through Part I’s cytology and Part II’s tissue study. You’ll learn to study preparations at low magnification first, then examine specific structures under higher power. The chapters cover the cell and cell division, epithelial tissues (simple, pseudo‑stratified, stratified, and modified epithelia), glands of digestion, liver, kidney, and the respiratory and urinary systems. Drawings are presented as a method of learning, with an emphasis on accuracy and careful observation. The material uses practical, exam‑style tasks to help you recognize normal anatomy and avoid common artefacts.
What you’ll experience
- Hands‑on lab guidance for observing cells, tissues, and organs under the microscope
- Structured study paths from general topography to detailed microstructure
- Focus on accurate drawings to reinforce learning and observation
- Clear differentiation of tissue types, gland structure, and blood supply in key systems
Ideal for students of histology and related medical sciences who want a thorough, accessible, and exam‑friendly lab companion that stays grounded in observable detail.

Excerpt from A Laboratory Guide in Histology
The directions in this manual are designed to economize the student's time by reducing to a minimum the mis directed energy which is inevitable when an unfamiliar subject is pursued without guidance. The instructions for each topic are arranged in logical sequence and should be followed in the order given.
Theoretically it is desirable to approach laboratory work with one's mind unbiased by preconceptions derived from texts. Owing, however, to the crowded curriculum this time-consuming method is impracticable. Hence it is essential to prepare for each laboratory period by reading previously an account of the work to be covered that day. In this way a preparation and perspective are gained which can not be Obtained by using the laboratory as a reading room.

Excerpt from A Laboratory Guide in Histology
The purpose of this book is to furnish laboratory instructions adapted for use in any standard course of normal Histology. With the exception of gross anatomy, no laboratory subject today enjoys more uniformity of presentation than does Histology. In the study of the fundamental tissues greater flexibility of treatment exists than in the microscopic anatomy of organs, yet in both definite routine structures must be observed and their inter-relations and significance emphasized. For this reason it is hoped that a laboratory guide designed to accomplish these ends, without reference to the peculiarities of any particular course, may prove useful.
For the most part, directions involving fresh tissues and organs, or specially stained and treated preparations, illustrative of uncommon features, have been omitted. This is done not with the intention of minimizing their importance, but because it is in these minutiæ that courses vary most.
An attempt has been made to put the treatment throughout on an inductive basis. Rather than presenting a mere list of structures to be identified, in so far as is practicable, the student is led to scrutinize, explain, and reach independent conclusions. The frequent interjection of appropriate queries should relieve the instructor of much tedious and often belated individual quizzing and directing.
