Synopsis

This book introduces beginning students to practical biology by presenting a series of laboratory exercises covering the gross and minute structure and the physiology of a variety of common animals and plants. These exercises are designed to develop the student's powers of independent observation, deduction, drawing and writing, skills that are central to scientific inquiry. The author, Charles Wright Dodge, wrote this text to address the need for a hands-on approach to the teaching of biology, a method that was not prevalent at the time of publication but has since become widely adopted. By focusing on the structure and function of common organisms, Dodge aimed to equip students with a solid foundation in the principles of biology which they could then apply to more complex biological systems.
