Advanced work relating to experimental research: 



Richards, James A., Francis Weston Sears, M. Russell Wehr, and Mark 

 W. Zemansky, Modern Unix^ersity Physics. Reading, Mass.: Addison- 

 Wesley Publishing Company, Inc., 1960. A high-level complete intro- 

 duction to modern physics. 



Strobel, Howard, Chemical Instrumentation. Reading, Mass.: Addison- 

 Wesley Publishing Company, Inc., 1960. Complete discussions of 

 instrumental analysis are included. This relatively new book will be- 

 come a favorite of biologists as well as chemists. 



Willard, H. H., L. L. Merritt, Jr., and John A. Dean, Instrumental 

 Methods of Analysis, 3rd ed. Princeton, N. J.: D. Van Nostrand Com- 

 pany, Inc., 1958. The practical descriptions of most of the commercial 

 instruments are quite detailed, and discussions of theoretical aspects 

 are relatively easy to follow. 



Wilson, E. Bright, Jr., An Introduction to Scientific Research. New 

 York: McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 1952. The single most 

 instructive volume on experimental research, using examples from 

 biology as well as from the physical sciences. 



Sources of specific information: 



Crouse, William H., editor-in-chief, McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Sci- 

 ence and Technology. New York: McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 

 1960. Fifteen volumes. 



Hale, L. J., Biological Laboratory Data. New York: John Wiley & Sons, 

 Inc., 1958. A pocket-size volume including items of specific informa- 

 tion that the biologist is likely to need: mathematical tables, weights 

 and measures, statistical tables, culture media, and so forth.

 land: Chemical Rubber Publishing Co. (New editions appear fre- 

 quendy; the most recent one I have seen is the 42nd, 1961.)
