This laboratory manual contains thirty-three chemistry experiments designed to introduce readers/students to the world of chemistry and to teach them general and specific laboratory skills. Using a variety of techniques and substances that are familiar in everyday life — they engage readers/students in such activities as synthesizing a substance, finding the composition of an ore sample, checking the effectiveness of an antacid, etc. Each well-structured, illustrated lab features background information, a theoretical framework for the experiment, necessary mathematical derivations, a summary and checklist of general laboratory activities, step-by-step procedures, safety precautions, and pre- and post-lab exercises and report forms (on tear-out pages). Several appendices cover common laboratory operations and statistical treatment of data.

4.0 out of 5 stars Has less personality than 'Chemtrek' but still it's fine., November 15, 2001
By 
This review is from: Measurement and Synthesis in the Chemistry Laboratory (2nd Edition) (Paperback)
I saw this at the local University library and ran home to order it. It is a cut above standard lab books. It has the personal feel from the author and is enjoyable reading (if you are a chemistry teacher!). I'm using it at the high school level but it is definitely more geared for freshman year undergrad.
