This revised edition of _Fluid Preservation: A Comprehensive Reference_ has been updated with a wealth of new research published during the last decade on preserving specimens in alcohol, formaldehyde, and other fluids. The text includes an expanded comprehensive bibliography and sections on managing fluid-preserved collections, determining preservative concentration, storage environments, preservation history and techniques, anatomical preparations, health and safety, fluid-preserved specimens in art and history museums, and cultural interpretations of fluid preservation in art, literature, and film. Although fluid preservation has been practiced for more than 350 years, _Fluid Preservation: A Comprehensive Reference_ remains the only reference that thoroughly summarizes current knowledge about this complex and often confusing topic.
