Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Laboratory and Field Manual of Botany
The authors fully recognize the fact that no set Of directions of only moderate fullness can tell the student all that he needs to know about choice Of material, apparatus, and manipulation. It is assumed that much is left to be explained by the instructor, and constant mention is made Of general and special laboratory guides which may be consulted for needed details.
The student in the laboratory is not to consider himself as merely the corroborator Of facts already ascertained; he is to interrogate mainly not the instructor, not the manual, but the plant itself. The directions here given are, therefore, for the most part suggestions on methods Of procedure and indications as to the plants or parts Of plants in which to look for desired information.
