Excerpt from The Microtomist's Vade-Mecum: A Handbook of the Methods of Microscopic Anatomy Between the recent editions and those of Bolles Lee there is this difference - Lee tried every method himself, but in recent years the subject has become so large, and the leisure of the collaborators and editors so small, that this desirable attribute has not been attained except in a few chapters. Several chapters in this book still stand almost as Bolles Lee wrote them those on invertebrate embryology and nerve endings.
