Microbiology: Experiments and Lab Techniques

Features: 1. Clear, Logical Explanations. Difficult concepts and complex procedures are written in a simple, straightforward style to ensure student understanding. 2. Research & Allied Health Emphasis. Exercises have been chosen and written to emphasize medical applications of microbiology for nursing and other allied health majors. However, what makes science fun is having the opportunity to design independent experiments. Therefore an experimental research theme is interwoven throughout the manual. 3. Critical Thinking. Students need to learn more than facts. More and more, allied health professionals are being expected to problem-solve and apply their training to novel situations. Throughout this book, discussion questions are designed to become progressively more challenging and require more critical thought from the students.
