Horrible Lab Book.......2007-09-30
Well, I received the manual and I was expecting that I purchased the 7th edition. Instead, I got the 6th edition. I think they should of specified in the beginning that it was the 6th edition originally so I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. ALSO, a majority of the EXERCISES were MISSING! How can I use a manual that is missing questions! I decided to keep it since it had the same instructions as the 7th, but now I have to always photocopy the exercises from someone else. Basically it was a HORRIBLE experience.
Microbio Lab Manual.......2006-11-10
Medical applications within each lab exercise are pertinent and relevant to my career interests. Great detail and excellent diagrams are helpful, although novice laboratory students should perform experiments under supervision of experienced instructors.
Pricey, but good.......1999-09-02
An excellent introduction into microbiology. It covers agar working techniques beautifully.
Some problems with it though. First, it references a text book for further reading. I don't have the text book.
Second, the expirements call for very specific bacteria/fungi/viral cultures that are difficult to obtain and mix if you are not using the book as part of a university class, in which case you'll likely not have any choice as to which text you use. Specifically a large number of the experiments utilize organisms which are potentially human pathogens, so do not expect to be able to aquire the raw materials for many of these experiments.
And last but not least is the price. However I've not found a better book for self teaching basic agar culture. Emphasis is on test tube culture, making the working materials a bit chearper and more available to most folks.

Book Description
This laboratory manual is designed for an introductory biology course with a broad survey of basic laboratory techniques. The experiments and procedures are simple, safe, easy to perform, and especially appropriate for large classes. Few experiments require a second class-meeting to complete the procedure. Each exercise includes many photographs, traditional topics, and experiments that help students learn about life. Procedures within each exercise are numerous and discrete so that an exercise can be tailored to the needs of the students, the style of the instructor, and the facilities available.

This book is like, the best!.......2002-05-12
I would like everyone to know that this book is super great. I was like so confused at first, but now everything is crystal clear. I learned that fertilization in a plant occurs in it's uterus and after gastrulation occurs the spores shoot out of the carpel and undergo a meiotic phase called the acrosomal stage. So like, if you're stumped about which bio book to get, you should totally get this one!
A superb laboratory manual........2000-07-09
The Biology Laboratory Manual by Guttman, Vodopich, Johnson, Raven, and Moore provides an easy to follow approach to introductory biology. It features many activities that can be completed on average between 2 and 3 hours. There are many photos and diagrams that are in full color, many pre-laboratory type questions, and a good amount of questions that are best answered during lab or after lab. This book is ideal for an advanced high school biology course or a freshman or sophomore college biology class. Unlike a fair amount of the laboratory texts out there, this one accompanies most biology books very well. Thus, the laboratory portion of class tends to blend very well with the lecture portion.
Book Description
"The best feature of this lab manual is its style and organization. It is not just readable, it is thorough.... It is comparable to the best lab manuals I have used or read."
—William Coleman, University of Hartford
"It is a friendly-to-student book and I think student users will appreciate it--even if they don't realize why. I think they will like microbiology just a bit more."
—Loyd J. Hays, University of Texas at San Antonio
Clear, concise, and always engaging!
Written specifically for allied health students, Pollack, Findlay, Mondschein, and Modesto’s
Laboratory Exercises in Microbiology, 2/e focuses on what students need to succeed in the lab: clear, concise, and highly engaging exercises and activities, rather than content that is simply adapted from a standard microbiology textbook.
Throughout the manual, a variety of interactive activities and experiments convey the basic concepts of microbiology––all in a student-friendly tone. Students also have the opportunity to explore methods that allow the safe movement or transfer of microbial cells from one type of growth environment to another, classification and identification of microbes, microbial biochemistry, as well as laboratory exercises from medical, food, and environmental microbiology.
Book Description
This lab guide gets readers up and running quickly with exercises that help them get the most out of the more than 20,000 images in
A.D.A.M.(r) Interactive Anatomy (AIA) software. Authors Lafferty and Panella are active AIA users who know what readers need to bridge the gap between systems-based anatomy books and the extensive illustration program in AIA. For college instructors and students.
Customer Reviews:
Great reference for my gross anatomy class.......2003-06-27
I liked this book because it make anatomy much easier to retain because of the detailed pictures showing the structures of the body. I'm a visual learner and found this book to be very good in showing me the difference in location between various ligaments and bones etc. I also used the following which is also available on amazon:
Spinal Anatomy Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers
isbn: 0971999600
This study guide helped me with the type of questions encountered in on my medical gross anatomy tests in med school. I highly recommend both books
Book Description
This top-selling laboratory manual follows a body-systems approach and is compatible with any introductory anatomy and physiology book. It features comprehensive coverage of all structures, extensive use of the scientific method, and full-color illustrations and photographs. Reader-friendly writing and streamlined organization make this manual a successful learning tool. Some of the topics covered include evaluations of cells and tissues, chemical reactions, examinations of organs and systems, and interpreting and applying results. For college instructors, students, pre-professionals and readers interested in human and animal anatomy and physiology.

Book Description
Alternating between topic discussions and hands-on laboratory experiments that range from the in vitro flowering of roses to tissue culture of ferns, Plant Tissue Culture Concepts and Laboratory Exercises, Second Edition, addresses the most current principles and methods in plant tissue culture research. The editors use the expertise of some of the top researchers and educators in plant biotechnology to furnish students, instructors and researchers with a broad consideration of the field. Divided into eight major parts, the text covers everything from the history of plant tissue culture and basic methods to propagation techniques, crop improvement procedures, specialized applications and nutrition of callus cultures. New topic discussions and laboratory exercises in the Second Edition include "Micropropagation of Dieffenbachia," "Micropropagation and in vitro flowering of rose," "Propagation from nonmeristematic tissue-organogenesis," "Variation in culture" and "Tissue culture of ferns." It is the book's extensive laboratory exercises that provide a hands-on approach in illustrating various topics of discussion, featuring step-by-step procedures, anticipated results, and a list of materials needed. What's more, editors Trigiano and Gray go beyond mere basic principles of plant tissue culture by including chapters on genetic transformation techniques, and photographic methods and statistical analysis of data. In all, Plant Tissue Culture Concepts and Laboratory Exercises, Second Edition, is a veritable harvest of information for the continued study and research in plant tissue culture science.
