He was quite secretive tho! "Leeuwenhoek's letter had been read aloud...and attracted great interest, verging on consternation." Leeuwenhoek declined...to give any description of his microscopical methods 'for reasons best known to himself’ said Hooke. https://t.co/OEUFIjpEdK https://t.co/IfuYcYSvKQ https://t.co/fPgrDfrDAI
