This update to Peter R. Mouton's pioneering work provides
bioscientists with the concepts needed in order to apply the
principles and practices of unbiased stereology to research
involving biological tissues.
Mouton starts with a brief explanation of the history and theory
of the process before defining the terms, concepts, and tools of
unbiased stereological procedures. He compares and contrasts the
procedures with less-exacting approaches to quantitative analysis
of biological structure using specific examples from biomedical
literature. The book incorporates existing best practices with new
methodologies, such as the Rare Event Protocol, while simplifying
the dense, often difficult literature on the subject to show the
utility and importance of unbiased stereology. This clear,
insightful guide goes a step further than other books on this
subject by demonstrating not only how to use unbiased stereology
but also how to interpret and present the results.
Written by the official U.S. representative to the International
Society for Stereology, this is the most complete, up-to-date
resource on the science of unbiased stereology. Those new to
bioscience research as well as experienced practitioners will find
that Mouton's explanations are the perfect companion for stereology
courses and workshops.
