the work of the gi'eatest vahie and importance to the practical 

 printer, and a handy reference-book for the publisher's desk. The 

 present edition, while essentially like the last, has some important 

 changes and additions. We consider it the best book published for 

 printers. 



The Student's Handbook to the MrcRoscoPE: A Practical Guide to 

 ITS Selection and Management, by A Quekett Clubman. London: 

 Koper & Drowley, Ludgate Hill, E. C, 1887. Pp. 68. 



This work is very elementary in character and is confined almost 



exclusively to descriptions of the various English microscopes and 



accessories. They who have never seen a microscope and desire to 



purchase one will find this work of assistance in selecting an instni- 



ment of English make — for no others are described. We think the 



writer has made a mistake in limiting his descriptions to English 



manufactures, for, as the work now stands, it is far from complete. 



The book is profusely illustrated.

Although this record is admirably arranged for the purpose 



intended, we cannot see that it contains anything especially different 



to place its usefulness above older publications of the sort. It is 



issued in elegant form.
