Light and Electron Microscopy of Cells and Tissues: An Atlas for Students in Biology and Medicine is a condensation of Volumes I and II of "Cells and Tissues by Light and Electron Microscopy" (Academic Press, Inc., New York and London, 1970). It is designed to provide the student with the essentials for a basic knowledge of animal cells and tissues. The book provides comprehensive discussions of the following: the cell, stratified squamous epithelium, the nervous system, muscle, the lymphoid organs, the circulatory system, the digestive system, the major glands of digestion, the urinary system, the male reproductive system, the female reproductive system, the endocrine glands, and special senses (the eye and the ear).
