Item Description
This Ebay listing is for the sale of a CD ROM publication of circa 1901 manual on how to handle and care for Microscopes originally published by Bausch & Lomb Co.
CD Title: Bausch Microscope Manual, 1901.
Starting with simple education on lenses and how simple magnifying glasses can give way to three lens systems and how these evolve to microscopes, we begin with learning about lenses and optics and end up learning how to measure with eyepiece micrometers.
This is partly of interest because of its historical context, partly because it gives some of the clear and easy to understand explanations of optics, optical design of magifying systems and microscopy systems.
You can read the detailed content pages further down this page.

Contains 223 pages in PDF file format.
Starting with simple education on lenses and how simple magnifying glasses can give way to three lens systems and how these evolve to microscopes, we begin with learning about lenses and optics and end up learning how to measure with eyepiece micrometers. This is partly of interest because of its historical context, partly because it gives some of the clear and easy to understand explanations of optics, optical design of magifying systems and microscopy systems.
As in most older books, we get a practical set of explanation that make everything clear. The book presumes the user is a beginner at optics and microscopy and takes the reader / user from ground zero to proficiency in a easy continuous evolution.
From operation and maintenance of the microscope to options , condensers and their design, to drawing attachments and how to draw from the microscope images, we get a robust survey of what a good microscopicist needs to know.

Many great books of skills and technology were abandoned or forgotten, and they languished on the shelves of factories, in boxes in attics, and in garages and libraries.
Now you can again delight and learn from them. This is a great drafting and drawing book, excellent instruction, great drawings to learn from, ideal for someone starting out or someone wanting to see what good standards used to be, and still are.
Enjoy! oh, and a pitch for the other publications we have, we are trying to selectively resurrect the best and most useful tomes of the past, take a look at ebay store
