5.0 out of 5 stars A must have if you want to know about confocal microscopy, May 5, 1999

By	rda9046@utarlg.uta.edu (Arlington, TX) - See all my reviews

This is a great reference book. A great place to start if you want to learn about confocal microscopes. The chapters are written by experts in their specific field of confocal microscopy. The book is also well referenced so that you can easliy continue your search for knowledge on confocal microscopy. I also found the appendix interesting, they list most of the existing confocal systems and there specs. This is useful if you plan on purchasing one. This book is also useful if you plan on building your own.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Collection Of Great Papers, November 28, 2007

By	M. ARAGHI "Hi-Tech Enthusiast" (Rochester, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Handbook of Biological Confocal Microscopy (Hardcover)

This is a great Handbook that contains many well written papers on various aspects of Confocal Microscopy, with emphasis on biological samples. There are basic and tutorial articles as well as some detailed specific studies. Many color photographs and charts are also included where appropriate. I highly recommend it to novice and expert workers in this field. For the former, it will provide a decent foundation, especially with references that are in each article; and for the latter, it serves as a compendium of good practices.
