Format: Paperback
We have used this for several years. Pros: A very through labbook with nice diagrams and illustrations. Teachers can pick and choose from a wide range of topics. A perforated edge combined with 3 whole punches makes it easy for students to hand in their results but store them as well when they get them back. Cons: More than a few proceedures had to be modified ( Yeast won't grow in TSB at any pH, the environmental sampling method as described didn't work. ) I found the small preporation manual for teachers with very little helpful information. ( It is supply lists and question answers mostly. No expected results or any substitutions recommended if you didn't have a culture. ) I would have prefered a teachers version of the labook with annotations. I made a full letter of comments and questions and sent them off to the publisher ( I was never able to track down direct author contacts ) hoping for a reply or at least to see some changes in future additions. No response. I'm happy to pass on a copy to anyone so they don't stumble on the same parts I did.

I saved a fortune by buying this older version of the current 9th ed. It's the same thing but just not updated a few less chapters. So far, it has served its purpose.

This book is very clear and straight-forward. If you read the text ahead of time, you will clearly understand the procedures and theoretical context for your lab class. It clearly is a beginner's manual, though, so it does not go terribly in depth into the molecular biochemistry of the experiments, which for many people will be a good thing, but not for those who want to learn everything about everything.

This is a fair microbiology lab manual; however, there are several better, but it was cheap. FDA puts out a BAM manual which has more depth and ther are several others worth looking into.
