Customer Rating: 

This book gives a clear big picture of what research labs environment feel like, but it can not substitute the actual experience. In a word, I like this book and recommend it to those who are new to a research lab, but keep in mind that situations are not always the same as stated in the book.

I bought the original one in 2000 and it was a great help to me. I just bought the new one for my lab so people who are not really science oriented can read it and get a grasp of whats going on quickly.

Customer Rating: 

I am a nursing student with no background in genetics trying to find my way through a biology seminar in virology. I think this book is effective in helping me to understand some of the background knowledge on experiments reported in the primary literature--knowledge that the biology students take for granted.
