VA1L-BALLOU PRESS, BINGHAMTON, N t Y T To the memory of THEOBALD
SMITH pupil, friend, and master investigator who opened new paths
to the human mind. PREFACE IN revising the matter for this, the
seventeenth, edition of The Microscope changes have been made in
every chapter in text and often in illustrations to render the
subject more easily understood. Attention has been called to the
newly devised Electron Microscope with its greatly increased
magnifying power and resolution over the ordinary microscope to
Polaroid for the micro-polariscope to some new plastics for
mounting in place of Canada balsam to the high pressure mercury
lamps for ultra-violet radiation and the bright mercury lines for
photographing objects with the microscope. In general, however, the
book retains its former character, and it is hoped that it will
continue to serve students and users of the micro scope in
understanding the underlying principles involved in micro scopical
work. As a final word, I wish to express my thanks and appreciation
for the new cuts loaned and other aid rendered by the American manu
facturers, the Bausch Lomb Optical Company of Rochester and the
Spencer Lens Company of Buffalo. The heads of those com panies,
Edward Bausch and Harvey N. Ott, have been my friends and advisers
for many years and have been ever ready to help me over the rough
places in my microscopical career. Likewise it is a pleasure to
render thanks to my University col leagues and to my fellow
microscopists for their friendly interest and help also to Clara
Starrett Gage, Ph. D. for aid in preparing illus trations, making
corrections and revising the index for this edition. SIMON HENRY
