AmScopeBK-CM2 The Usborne Complete Book of The Microscope

The best book ever for seeing small and also getting information about what you are seeing.

Great book for my 9 year granddaughter.

Nice book wish it had a little more content and less history. I thought it would be more about using your microscope and it does to some extent. Like I said I didn't need a history lesson about how microscope came about,,,,

This is truly a beautiful book. The colors of the pictures (full-page pictures) and the information is really nice. I'm so glad I bought this in my local library's used bookstore. I want to take microbiology so it's interesting basic stuff for me. :) Great for young or old with the interest for science.

The book in in fantastic shape! It arrived on time also. It is a good book, but not what I thought. But I would recommend for teens jyst getting interested in microscopy.

there are better introductory books e.g world in a drop

This is essentially a picture book with very close to no advice (minimal advice) on operating an optical microscope. High quality electron microscope photographs on high quality paper generous commentary. Not what I was looking for.D R T

This is a must have when starting in microscopy. Well written with lots of pictures. Good descriptions for beginners and several projects using slides preparation to get you started. I recommend.

Well illustrated and very in-depth but you can start as basic and then explore within the book which is also linked to the internet. Excellent my 6 year old grandson adores this especially to go along with using the microscope

Very entertaining book for kids and adults

Creo que es un libro muy instructivo, todo muy bien explicado (por algo tiene el premio Rhône-Poulenc de divulgación científica para jóvenes) y con ilustraciones de calidad. Es un libro atractivo que invita a leer y que un niño de 10-12 años puede entender en inglés. Incluso sirve para los mayores que no estén muy familiarizados con los campo de la biología y microscopía. La única pega, es que pensaba que iban a venir algunos experimentos más para realizar al microscopio (hay algunos muy sencillos, pero echo de menos que hubiera más cantidad). Una pena que no lo editen en español.

I bought this for my science-curious 8 year old daughter who had recently been given a microscope. She adored it! The way the book is structured was perfect for a 2 page reading on a new topic every night. It’s fed her appetite for science and has also helped her learn to use her microscope. Her achieve curiosity has now morphed into an obsession! Highly recommend!
