Marimuthu R. Microscopy and Microtechnique

MJP Publishers, 2017. — 460 p. — ISBN: 978-81-8094-035-4.The microscope is the instrument most used by biologists, and students are introduced to it even at higher secondary school level. However, it is surprising to find that very few are aware of its construction, optical properties and the proper care and use of the same. Even at the secondary school level, students of biology are shown objects under the microscope but I am not sure whether they are given any instructions about its use, much less about its construction. Students of biology at the college level (undergraduate students) do use the microscope, but most of them learn only to use the focusing screws and the light source.Microscopy
