Contemporary
Genetics Laboratory Manual, by Rodney J. Scott, introduces
students to standards and leading-edge discoveries in
the world of genetics, with a dozen lab activities designed
to engage and inform students with background information
and recent scientific discoveries.
Labs
lead students through step-by-step procedures that encourage
them to add to the scientific community’s knowledge.
Accurate scientific illustrations and glossary items are
included to reinforce learning and key points. Questions
following each procedure ensure that students connect
with key information and discovery in the labs.
Each
lab is written as a stand-alone unit, so instructors can
use the manual as presented to explore a wide range of
genetics information, or labs can be chosen and combined
in any order desired. In addition, instructors can write
additional labs to supplement the text, earning royalties
for their department or school.
