An Introduction to Microscopy by Suzanne Bell
Builds a foundation in the basics of light and polarizing microscopy. This book focuses on forensic science applications and explores applications in other disciplines that benefit from microscopy. It also includes chapters that detail topics ranging from basic theoretical knowledge to advanced subjects such as electron and confocal microscopy.
An Introduction to Microscopy provides a much needed, focused volume that is justifiably offered as a text for academic courses or a stand-alone reference for professionals.. . Despite the authors’ backgrounds in forensic science, the volume is not specifically written as a forensic text, making the content applicable to any field that utilizes a microscope. ... Chapter 6, Photomicrography, is a must read for anyone that uses digital imaging for research or forensic case reports. ... colleges and universities would benefit in adding An Introduction to Microscopy to their microscopy courses or any laboratory section of a course that utilizes the microscope. The organization of the book allows for the reader to flow from one chapter to the next, constantly building upon the previous chapter’s subject matter. This easy to read, well-illustrated volume with practical exercises throughout the text would be a worthwhile addition to the libraries of practitioners in the forensic sciences.
