AmScopeThe World of the Microscope - A Practical Introduction with Projects and Activities

Save your money. It is just a very thiny book, at a ridiculous price! 21£ for a book that costs 8,99$ (printed on the back)!!! It feels like a scam! On top of that, on the back of the book there's written clearly: NOT FOR SALE OUTSIDE OF THE USA. So, good to know! Someone is breaking the rules and making easy money!45 pages of illustration that feels out of a book from the 80's!Save your money, it's not worth a penny.

Having bought a microscope for our 10 year old daughter we wanted some sort of reference book to help her through the use of a microscope. This book is absolutely spot on. It is clear, concise, easy to read with lots of diagrams and gives lots of hints and tips on using an optical microscope. As someone who used to work as an industrial microscopist I can also say that, perhaps most importanly of all, the information in the book is correct.

Purchased as gift,child loves it.

Good quality

We got a microscope as a present for one of our kids and got this book to go with it. It has lots of great ideas to try and is helpful when you get a microscope to understand some of the things you can try.
