From the Author
This book has become a classic because it it a book of procedures. I did every experiment in the book and wrote what I did and what I discovered. This leaves room for the reader to vary the procedures and see the differences in the results. There are no correct or incorrect result--you can learn from everything you do. This edition contains many new experiments including a discussion of nutrition and that 70 % of the American diet is made up of processed food--science experiments we buy and eat regularly.
