A journey into everyday life through spectacular microscopic images.
This substantial volume brings together extraordinary images produced through the latest technologies in microphotography. Most of the 205 stunning, full-color photographs have been taken using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), allowing us to see our world as never before.
Each image is a close-up that reveals remarkable forms, shapes and colors. The book is divided into six chapters that cover:
- Micro-organisms
- Botany
- The human body
- Zoology
- Minerals
- Technology.
Every spread includes complete, informative captions that identify the photograph and describe both the image and the way in which it was captured.
With its stunning full-color photographs and text written in clear and accessible language, Microcosmos provides a fascinating journey of discovery.
