Summary "The Preparation & Mounting of Microscopic Objects" by Thomas Davies is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This handbook serves as a comprehensive guide for both beginners and advanced students in the field of microscopy, focusing on the techniques of preparing and mounting objects for microscopic examination. It covers various methods ranging from cleanliness in handling specimens to the choice of materials for mounting, addressing practical considerations crucial for effective microscopic observation. The beginning of this work introduces the importance of cleanliness and proper equipment in microscopic preparation. Davies emphasizes that a slide that appears clean to the naked eye may still reveal imperfections under magnification, necessitating thorough attention to detail. The initial chapter discusses the types of apparatus required, the process for preparing and mounting "dry" objects, and the selection of appropriate slides and covers. By laying the groundwork for successful microscopic practices, this opening sets the stage for detailed instructions on handling specific types of specimens later in the text.
