Useless busy workFeb 02, 2009
By M.G. If you aren't required to use this book for a class, don't bother getting it. The questions are very broad, and essentially involve copying large passages from the textbook. What makes it worse is that the space given for each question doesn't even accommodate this. Even if they expect you to write in a concise manner, it is near impossible to answer many of the questions in just 1 or 2 sentences.
Basically, this manual is just busy work that doesn't really help you study. Studying the textbook on its own is good enough!

Great companion to the textbook.Jan 07, 2011
By MommyShopAlot I was given assignments out of this lab manual and it forced me to go through the chapters and read them thoroughly. I don't think I would have paid attention to some details if it weren't for this manual.
