At the Bench: A Laboratory Navigator
Barker has wisely identified many aspects of laboratory work not usually covered by "conventional" manuals, making her book one of the rarest sources for vital information required for any successful scientist.  Overall, the volume is superbly written, and reading is made pleasurable by multiple hilarious remarks from the author.  It is highly recommended for anyone working in research -- from undergraduate students to primary investigators, either in academy or industry. In my opinion, this is a "must have" volume for any laboratory.- The Quarterly Review of Biology--This text refers to an alternateSpiral-boundedition.
