Excerpt from The Microscope: And Its Revelations The rapid increase which has recently taken place in the use of the Microscope, - both as an instrument of scientific research, and as a means of gratifying a laudable curiosity and of Obtain ing a healthful recreation, - has naturally led to a demand for information, both as to the mode of employing the instrument and its appurtenances, and as to the objects for whose minute examination it is most appropriate. And as none of the existing Treatises, either British or Foreign, on the Microscope and its Uses, have seemed to the Author fully adapted to meet this demand (some of them being almost exclusively concerned with the Microscope itself, and others with some special branch or branches Of Microscopic study), he has felt encouraged to carry out a plan which he had formed several years since; by endea voring to combine, within a moderate compass, that information in regard to the use of his tools which is most essential to the working Microscopist, with such an account of the objects best fitted for his study, as might qualify him to comprehend what he observes, and might thus prepare him to benefit science whilst expanding and refreshing his own mind.
