Covers the basics of optical microscopy. This book discusses basic microscopes and their underlying principles, image optimization, and extensions to the confocal principle, including their value to the biologist. It covers computer manipulations such as deconvolution, and fluorescent probes, and offers a preview of imaging tools and techniques.
