Whilst visiting a friend I noticed he had a copy of D Jacksons, 'Better Microscopy, Volume III, Digital Photo-microscopy' Book.

I know it was a print on demand book BUT it seems to have disappeared from LULU.

Anyone know what has happened to the book? Is it available as a PDF?

Thanks

Somewhat bewildered … I’ve found Mr Jackson‘s blogpost, offering free download of the ‘Compendium Edition’ but no obvious reference to a Volume III

Correction: There is a reference at 01-July-2018

Thanks, MichaelG !
Here is the title of the downloadable PDF at the link from July 1, 2018

"BETTER MICROSCOPY
A Series of Practical User's Guides
Selected Notes from:
Volume III
Digital Photo-Microscopy
Notes No. 10 - 13
Camera Coupling Methods, etc."

Other parts of the Blog seem to be interesting as well.

I have a friend who has a copy of the book and took a photo of the front cover to look it up.

I tried to upload it but failed. Will post it when I work out the size requirement for photos

Hi all, I give a 'shout out' to a 2010 low cost book: "Practical Digital Photomicrography for photography in the life sciences"/ Dr. Brian Matsumoto. Brian ( 1981 PhD in anatomy and cell biology, was Director of the Integrated Microscopy Facility in dept. of molecular, cellular, developmental biology, at U.Calif., Santa Barbara..served 1992-2009) ...Brian offers a clear foundation for all starters in microscopy, and photography right up to academic/ research worker digital photography applications.

Great for educators, hobby microscopists, professional microscopists. I hope I have not 'expanded this thread beyond it's topic'...hope for a good year 2023 for all, charlie g.

By pure chance I was taken to the German version of the LULU website and I fould the Book Better Microscopy, Volume III, Digital Photo-microscopy. Cost of Book £4.80

To be honest, I do not know how I found this link, but I just ordered this book from Lulu today (in the US). Hope I get it...

I make no promises, etc., but I hope someone finds this useful.

Cheers,

Thanks for this. Ordered the book and received it today. Looks like some good reading and it’s not available on his website, only volumes 1 and 2 there.

No problem. I was out of town last week, but it was waiting for me when I came back. There's a lot of practical knowledge on one place, so it's very useful for an amateur like me.
