Finally, an amateur microscopy book up-to-date with our modern world to introduce children, teenagers, and adults to a fantastic hobby and pastime. Learn how to buy a microscope, how to use it, what to look at, how to photograph & video what you find. The author founded one of the most established Hobby Microscopy sites on the web. Here is a book which exceeds the vision of other microscopy books for newbies and young people. Clear practical guide to everything you need to get started at any age. And if you are a teenager or older person wanting to get started, a whole section (half the book) brings the hobby into the digital age. The cobwebs covering older microscopy books are swept away as this book barges through and connects the pastime and pursuit of amateur microscopy in the past to the digital age of today. Learn how to make professional looking microscopy videos or take huge image photographs using budget microscopes and limited resources. Make stunning 3D images of microscopic creatures and plants or macro 3D images of insects. Not only a practical guide to the hobby today but an inspirational guide to help new people taking up the hobby use new techniques, materials, and safe methods to make their own slides and share their discoveries with others across the worldwide web.

    5,0 su 5 stelle Likable & Informative. Easy to read and still contains very good advice !

    Likable & Informative. Easy to read and still contains very good advice - how to perform microscopy !

    5,0 su 5 stelle Great starter book
    Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 24 aprile 2019
    This also has super references and resource websites. And they recommend the very best pictorial guide for fresh water micro-organisms —- “Fresh Water Biology” 2nd edition, by Ward and Whipple. I wish someone recommended this when I began my hobbyist interest in microscopy. It has it all. No need for any other reference to identify and/or classify fresh water organisms.

    3,0 su 5 stelle This book is really only suitable for kids or parents ...
    Recensito in Canada il 12 novembre 2015
    This book is really only suitable for kids or parents of kids. I was expecting something more at an adult level. Moreover there isn't much of value here that can't be found online.

    5,0 su 5 stelle Brilliant buy for beginners with a brain!
    Recensito nel Regno Unito il 18 luglio 2014
    Having stumbled across the excellent website run by the author of this book, I found myself in precisely the position envisaged by this publication - a complete beginner looking to discover something about the use of the microscope as an intelligent hobby. Until Mol Smith came along, many of the books available on microscopes were either (a) impossibly dated and hopelessly out-of-print [while having a certain vintage charm in their own right, reading about Victorian techniques in Victorian english is a rather specialist interest!] or (b) fun, colourful, engaging... and clearly aimed at very young children. This book falls into neither category. It is up-to-date (with internet sites recommended and modern methods and equipment used) and squarely aimed at readers who possess a brain and are not afraid to use it! I would guess a bright teenager might be the ideal reader, but a middle-aged beginner like me can learn a great deal without being in any way patronised. Indeed the concluding sections of the book which deal with advances in digital photography, 3D imaging, and the production of videos... are all areas where a bright teenager might be well ahead of the average adult anyway!
    The style is uncomplicated and clear and the approach is methodical and down-to-earth. Here you can learn what sort of microscopes are worth buying, and where to obtain quality equipment. There are money-saving tips for those on a tight budget, and a real sense of progression in both skills and equipment as you read through the book. I have no doubt this will be a book to refer to again and again at the microscope in the future. I look forward to Mol's next publication with enthusiasm - a workbook of projects and experiments for hobby microscopists perhaps? All in all a book like this leaves me with one pressing question: why is there no T.V. show dedicated to microscopy as there is to astronomy? Mol Smith has demonstrated the huge potential of microscopy as a hobby; this book and his website microscopyuk are highly recommended as the best place to start.

    4,0 su 5 stelle Starts well, but the latter part of the book is too esoteric or just plain irrelavant
    Recensito nel Regno Unito il 1 febbraio 2018
    This book starts very well. As other reviewers have said there do not appear to be many up to date books on microscopy aimed at an amateur microscopist. There are old books out there, but these will recommend the use of chemicals which are, quite rightly in view of their toxic/carcinogenic properties, no longer available to the amateur and there are glossy colour books aimed at young children but with little real information. Other than that there are only the books aimed at professionals.

    This book starts with useful information about choosing a microscope. The author discusses both low power stereo microscopes and high power monocular microscopes. Interestingly there is only a fleeting reference to high power binocular microscopes, this I found a little strange since these would appear to be the mainstay of the professional microscopist's toolkit, as I understand it the advantage of these over the monocular microscope is that they are more relaxing to use than a monocular microscope.

    There is a useful section on preparation of specimens which describes techniques that don't utilise the aforementioned hazardous chemicals. There is a brief chapter on suitable initial object to study and a slightly more extensive chapter on pond life subjects.

    The book then moves on to photomicrography, and this is where I first began to have misgivings about the book. The initial sections about attaching a camera to a microscope are fine, though this then goes on to recommend the use of very expensive software (Adobe Photoshop CS) which a casual user might baulk at the cost of. There then follows three whole chapters devoted to 3D imaging, presentation of 3D images and finally the creation of computer-generated 3D models. It's obvious that the author has a great enthusiasm for the whole subject of 3D imaging, but I would have felt that this was definitely a specialised interest, worth a brief discussion but not the extensive treatment it gets here. The whole 3D modelling chapter seems to have little connection with microscopy at all.

    Finally the author moves on to producing and posting videos about microscopy. This is all very worthy advice for a budding videographer, with emphasis on telling a story, creating a script, adding sound, commentary, music, etc. Clearly the author makes such videos, but how many readers are going to want to do this? The advice is certainly not microscopy related, it would apply just as well to making bird watching videos, travelogs or whatever. It feels seriously out of place to me and has the look of padding.

    So, in conclusion I feel the author has somewhat failed to correctly identify his audience. I would have loved to see more information on specimen preparation and suitable projects at the expense of the latter third of the book. Maybe issue the whole 3D section as a separate book for those interested in this?

    Four stars, because the initial section was good, it just needs to be expanded.
