Excerpt from The Microscope: In Theory and Practice

This translation of Nægeli and Schwendener's well-known treatise "Das Mikroskop" was commenced by Mr. Frank Crisp, Secretary of the Royal Microscopical Society, immediately after the publication of the last (German) edition (1877), with the intention - as indicated by him in a communication to the Quekett Microscopical Club - of filling up a blank in English microscopical literature in regard to the scientific technical treatment of the theory of the Microscope, in which English text-books were so deficient.

The student refers in vain, even at the present date, to English works on the Microscope for explanations of the theory of the construction of objectives, eyepieces, &c., or for the discussion of the phenomena of diffraction and polarisation in their connexion with the Microscope, or for any scientific treatment of the question of interpreting microscopical images or the theory of microscopic observation. These subjects are dealt with systematically in German works only, and notably in that of Nægeli and Schwendener.

The translation was thus undertaken with a view to placing before English readers the then best known collective exposition or technical treatment of these points by German writers.

When the rough draft of the translation was completed, the first five sheets (80 pp.) were revised and put in type, but in consequence of prior claims upon his time in connexion with the Royal Microscopical Society, Mr. Crisp was compelled to relinquish the task of further revision and of passing the volume through the press, a labour which was undertaken by Mr. John Mayall, jun., one of the editors of the Society's Journal.
