Synopsis

A lab manual that builds on the goals and themes in Discover Biology to make students more scientifically literate.

Discovering Biology in the Lab cultivates the critical-thinking skills of non-science majors by constantly asking them to consider why they are doing what they are doing, how their experience in the lab connects to what they learn in lecture, and how they can apply these concepts to the real world.

The best value for your students: Custom manuals cost just $1 per lab when packaged with the textbook and just $4 per lab standalone (7-lab minimum).
