Comprehensive study of microscopy with 16 photographic plates of microscopic images and numerous illustrations that include many full page images of microscopes and related instruments. Gilbert Hartley writes that this is one of his favorite (#2) of all books on microscopy: "My second book was Spitta [2], combining the proper handling of the substage and the mechanical evolution of the instrument from the long-bodied English stand to the short Continental type. The photomicrographs guarantee the integrity of the work, and form a test for the rest of us, who can now use flash instead of exposures measured sometimes in hours, and tungsten-halogen instead of the limes and bottled gases alarmingly described in his work on photomicrography. Spitta may be recognised as the microscopist's Bible: time has added techniques, but the foundation is bedrock." - Gilbert Hartley," A dozen favourite books on microscopy", Quekett Journal of Microscopy, 2005, 40, 39â "40.
