Reviews

'This book provides not only basic information that will be useful to those new to microscopy, but also tips from experienced users that will surely aid other experienced microscopists ... Recommended.' L. M. Baird, Choice '[This book] is interesting for both beginners and advanced users. It is divided into fourteen chapters written by thirty-six contributors from nine different countries, which underlines its broad scope.' Jean-Marie Volland, Marine Ecology
