Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Directions in Histology: A Guide for Use in a Laboratory Course in Histology The following guide is primarily designed for use in the Department of Histology & Embryology, Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. It is the third that has been arranged for such use, the first two having been prepared under the direction of the former head of the Department, Professor S. H. Gage. Naturally, therefore, in the selection of many of the type specimens and in the choice of methods his ideas are prominent in the present one. So closely are they interwoven with my own that no attempt to give credit has been made further than this general acknowledgment by one who was his pupil and later his assistant. While planned for courses offered by the writer, the guide is believed to have a wider usefulness. The aim has been to place before the student an outline which will assist him in the study of the specimens furnished in the course as well as facilitate the work of instruction. The well known plan has been followed of introducing questions which may usually be answered in the study of the specimen or from collateral reading. Numerous drawings are called for. Opportunity of gaining a practical knowledge of general histological methods is given. In brief, the plan of instruction long in operation in the Department is adhered to in the present directions. The only distinct rearrangement in the order of presentation is the attempt to bring more closely together the blood and blood-forming organs usually so separated in textbooks of histology.
