Great Info!!.......2006-06-25

If you have been in this kind of field before you will know that this book is a great help.
Very detailed and well organized.

Not for beginners.......2003-08-03

I did not find this book to be a good choice for the novice. I would recommend this to someone in the sales area of public relations but not the education area. Also, I think the checklists were quite long--too long for someone who is looking more for tips. Other books that exist that are more educational and beneficial to the novice.

Not a winner.......2002-10-24

Unless you are running your own business and have absolutely no PR experience, this book is not for you. I found it very basic and a bit outdated. No reference to online PR at all -- or even email releases! Save your money.

Very Insightful.......2000-05-11

This was a new direction that my job demaned I proceed in and I was very nrevous. However, this book was extremely helpful to me with the implementation and completion of various PR tasks. I find it to be a valuable reference that I cannot function without.

Book Description

Productivity has become a national priority. Its effects are being felt on all levels--national, industrial, and individual. An organization must be able to measure productivity before effectively improving it. This volume is the first practical guide for developing productivity measurement systems. It describes the use of the Productivity Measurement and Enhancement System (ProMES) designed by its author and his colleagues. An important tool for organizations, this step by step guide discusses how to measure productivity and then how to use this measurement. Robert Pritchard's guide first presents a detailed description of the development and uses of ProMES. The background and description of ProMES is followed by details on how to develop ProMES in any organization. Questions and answers about using the system are discussed together with further issues on how to implement the system. The use of the system with other productivity improvement techniques is also covered. The volume concludes with a discussion on evaluating the effects of a productivity improvement system. It is a valuable practical source for industrial and organizational psychologists, management consultants, classes, and workshops.

Book Description

This book describes the physiological and anatomical principles and the chemical and physical factors that determine uptake, translocation, accumulation, loss, and metabolism of anthropogenic chemicals in plants. Expert authors in the fields of biology, chemistry, ecology, environmental physics, and biochemistry provide recently developed methods and models for estimation of the behavior of environmental chemicals in the soil-plant-air system-information that is essential in the hazard assessment of new and existing chemicals.

Book Description

Laboratory Exercises in Microbiology, 6/e has been prepared to accompany Prescott et al's Microbiology, 6/e. Like the text, the laboratory manual provides a balanced introduction to laboratory techniques and principles that are important in each area of microbiology.

Customer Reviews:

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.

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 current laboratory manual is based on the original manuscript written by the late Dr. Michael S Parker (1961-2003). Dr. Parker worked diligently in designing and coordinating the microbiology laboratories at University of Memphis. In this new edition, we substitute most bacteria used in the original manual with bacteria that are classified as Biosafety Level 1 organisms to improve laboratory safety. New chapters on the use of internet- and computer- assisted gene analysis are now added to provide students with hands on experience in this new area of microbiology and bioinformatics. This manual is supported, in part, by a TAF grant from the University of Memphis. The Editor also thanks Ms Leigh McFarland for her careful review and her valuable comments on this manual.
