Cloth, 8vo, 25 cm, x,182 pp. From the blurb: "The textbooks of science are being rewritten following the extraordinary disclosures described in this book. It has long been taught that no specimens survive from the early days of the microscope, but Brian J. Ford found nine specimen packets prepared three centuries ago by the 'father of the microscope' Antony van Leeuwenhoek, at a time when the foundations of modern biology were being laid. His research has revealed how the specimens were prepared and how the first sections were cut. He has identified the species Leeuwenhoek examined and even found some of the great man's cells adherent to the sections. He then recreated the pioneering experiments which gave us such fundamental concepts as the 'cell nucleus' and showed that many neglected early microscopes - formerly described as 'low-power dissecting instruments' - were actually capable of generating images of the highest quality. His story oudines a prolific and intense programme of research carried out in several countries. It is a vivid first-hand account of scientific investigation which brings alive the origins of the modern era of biology." Very Good in slightly used dustwrapper. Codice articolo ABE-25822
