American vs Foreign Microscopes Analyzed by Howard Professor
Professor Seaman of Howard University reports testimony from owners of over 1,000 microscopes across twenty leading colleges and agencies. He finds 659 American and 434 foreign makes, suggesting rapid growth of native instruments and Michigan’s belief that the best tools are made in the United States. Also notes a critique of how the English Atlas underrepresents the United States, with maps that shrink or omit American detail, hindering readers’ sense of the country.
