Editorial Review:
Work at the biology bench requires an ever-increasing knowledge of mathematical methods and formulae. In Lab Math, Dany Spencer Adams has compiled the most common mathematical concepts and methods in molecular biology, and provided clear, straightforward guidance on their application to research investigations. Subjects range from basics such as scientific notation and measuring and making solutions, to more complex activities like quantifying and designing nucleic acids and analyzing protein activity. Tips on how to present mathematical data and statistical analysis are included. A reference section features useful tables, conversion charts and iplug and chugi equations for experimental procedures. This volume is an excellent, structured source of information that in many laboratories is often scattered and informally organized.

Good Book but missing key equations.  2008-02-05
At first glance this book seemed like it would be really helpful. It has a very good diagram of dilutions and a good explanation of pH and solutions. However, there is no section on commonly used equations like osmolality and creatinine clearance. I thought this book was geared more towards the medical technologist because it does have a good hematology math section. But I was disapointed. Luckily I don't mind writing in my books.
Upside down  2006-07-04
A colleague has this book so I had seen the content. Mostly pretty useful, too bad it was upside down. The book is spiral with a hard cover, the spiral part was inserted upside down. I assume no pages are missing. Too annoying to return it to Amazaon, 50$+. Won't happen again. This is the first time I've ever had a problem, serious or otherwise, from Amazon.
Well worth it  2006-04-07
This book has the answers to all the math stuff you didn't pay attention to in intro chemistry and don't want to ask those more senior to you. I am currently working toward my PhD, and I use it daily at the bench.
An excellent book for everyone! 2005-08-02
If you're a new researcher or have been doing it forever, this book is excellent. I have been a bench scientist for seven years now, and have found this book highly useful. The picture on the cover was indeed my desk and lab-space until I got this book in hand. Definitely worth it, and make sure your fellow lab-mates don't try to permanently adopt it!
Definitely worth having 2003-12-13
This is a great book. I use it mostly to look up techniques while I'm working (certain pages are well dog-eared), but when I've read more, I've found it very helpful. I wish I'd had it when I was a student. Teachers should also find it really useful for helping students get the math refresher they usually need for college science classes. There are a couple of errors - you can download the corrections from the publishers website (where it says the mistakes are only in the first printing) - but in a book like this that's hard to avoid, and there are actually very few. Most of the book is really terrific, and surprisingly entertaining, especially the cartoons.
