Excerpt from The Micrographic Dictionary, Vol. 1: A Guide to the Examination and Investigation of the Structure and Nature of Microscopic Objects; Text
Secondly, a few observations may be offered on the character, objects, and uses of the work. It was stated in the Prospectus, that the Micro graphic Dictionary' was offered as an index to our knowledge of the structure and properties of bodies revealed by the Microscope. The Authors venture to hope that their work may possess many useful qualities beyond those strictly implied in the above definition.
Few or none of the works hitherto published have dwelt upon the manner in which observers might judge of the structure of objects from the appearances presented under the Microscope. There are works treating of the construction of the mechanical and Optical parts of the instrument, and the manner of using them, of the methods of preparing objects for examination and to these are usually appended lists of objects presenting interesting appearances. But there exists no work which will direct the Student how to vary the methods of preparation of the objects examined, so as to elicit their true structure.
