Editorial Reviews

To help students remain focused and organized, I prefer the lab manual to emphasize lab activities/procedures. I find the photos and illustrations accompanying the procedures very helpful to the students. The lab reinforces lecture materials and provides students an opportunity for honing critical thinking and analytical skills.
