Title page of Microscopium by Dutch microscopist Anton van Leeuwenhoek, 1708. Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) was one of the first to recognise cells in animals and who gave the first accurate description of microbes and spermatzoma and blood corpuscles. Using microscopes he assembled himself, he discovered the existence of protozoa (1674), bacteria in tooth tartar (1676), blood corpuscles (1674) and blood capillaries (1683). In 1680 he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society in recognition of his work. Third edition (Leyden, 1708).
