Abstract
As much as possible I have stuck with traditional, manual microscopy in this book. Digital systems are wonderful, and microscopy is moving more and more towards digitalisation. Digital microscopy will require an entire book of its own, so I have not gone too far into it in this book. I have included image capture as it is now a common addition to traditional microscopes and a logical next step for the user who wants to advance their skills.
Photography was the medium pre-eminently qualified to unite art and science. Photography was born in the years which ushered in the scientific age, an offspring of both science and art
