Principles and Techniques of Practical Biochemistry

Rating:
Summary: Excellent reference
Review: This book is an invaluable source of information not only for those studying about various practical techniques but even those engaged in experiments in a lab environment. Written more as an overview, it works to familiarize the reader with the principles of both experimental protocols and the equipment that might be used, for example centrifuges. It's very useful to go back to it from time to time to get a refresher on techniques that I might use on a regular basis but might not remember all the details of. Highly recommended. It's also written quite simply, which unfortunately is not the case for all biology texts.

Summary: A useful, informative guide to practical biology
Review: This book would be especially useful to science students engaging in a predominantly practical-based biological course.
