?This book should be widely adopted by many programs given the importance of chemical safety. With a list price under $70, it is not unreasonable to ask students to purchase this book in their first year, knowing that it will be used every year following.' ( Journal of Chemical Education , February 2012) "An excellent resource for undergraduate chemistry students, including non-majors, as well as graduate students. Highly recommended. Academic, two-year technical program, and professional libraries, all levels." (Choice, March 2011) "This authoritative and clearly-written book is full of relevant and important material. Every undergraduate laboratory, and, ideally, every undergraduate chemist, should have a copy of what is, by some distance, the best book I have seen on safety in the undergraduate laboratory." (Education in Chemistry, May 2011) "This authoritative and clearly-written book is full of relevant and important material. Every undergraudate laboratory, and, ideally, every undergraduate chemist, should have a copy of what is by some distance the best book I have seen on safety in the undergraduate laboratory".

Synopsis
..".this substantial and engaging text offers a wealth of practical (in every sense of the word) advice...Every undergraduate laboratory, and, ideally, every undergraduate chemist, should have a copy of what is by some distance the best book I have seen on safety in the undergraduate laboratory." Chemistry World, March 2011 Laboratory Safety for Chemistry Students is uniquely designed to accompany students throughout their four-year undergraduate education and beyond, progressively teaching them the skills and knowledge they need to learn their science and stay safe while working in any lab. This new principles-based approach treats lab safety as a distinct, essential discipline of chemistry, enabling you to instill and sustain a culture of safety among students. As students progress through the text, they'll learn about laboratory and chemical hazards, about routes of exposure, about ways to manage these hazards, and about handling common laboratory emergencies. Most importantly, they'll learn that it is very possible to safely use hazardous chemicals in the laboratory by applying safety principles that prevent and minimize exposures. Continuously Reinforces and Builds Safety Knowledge and Safety Culture Each of the book's eight chapters is organized into three tiers of sections, with a variety of topics suited to beginning, intermediate, and advanced course levels. This enables your students to gather relevant safety information as they advance in their lab work. In some cases, individual topics are presented more than once, progressively building knowledge with new information that's appropriate at different levels. A Better, Easier Way to Teach and Learn Lab Safety We all know that safety is of the utmost importance; however, instructors continue to struggle with finding ways to incorporate safety into their curricula. Laboratory Safety for Chemistry Students is the ideal solution: Each section can be treated as a pre-lab assignment, enabling you to easily incorporate lab safety into all your lab courses without building in additional teaching time. Sections begin with a preview, a quote, and a brief description of a laboratory incident that illustrates the importance of the topic. References at the end of each section guide your students to the latest print and web resources. Students will also find "Chemical Connections" that illustrate how chemical principles apply to laboratory safety and "Special Topics" that amplify certain sections by exploring additional, relevant safety issues. Visit the companion site at http: //userpages.wittenberg.edu/dfinster/LSCS/., Laboratory Safety provides the knowledge and models of good practice needed by students to work safely in the laboratory as they progress through four years of undergraduate laboratory work. Most topics are covered several times, at increasing levels of depth, with progressively more advanced safety issues discussed., A unique approach to keeping you safe in the labthroughout your undergraduate education and beyond Laboratory Safety is unlike any other college textbook you've ever seen. It's designed to accompany you throughout your fouryear undergraduate education and beyond, teaching you the skills and knowledge you need to learn your science and stay safe while you're working in the lab. The book is organized around four core principles of safety (RAMP): Recognizing hazards Assessing risks of hazards Minimizing hazards Preparing for emergencies from uncontrolled hazards Each of the book's eight chapters is organized into three tiers of sections, with a variety of topics suited to introductory, intermediate, and advanced courses. This enables you to gather the relevant safety information you need for your particular course level. Each section begins with a brief description of a laboratory incident that illustrates the importance of the topic. A multiple choice quiz concludes each section to help you assess your grasp of the topic. Instructors can choose to administer these quizzes online. Throughout the text, "Chemical Connections" illustrate how chemical principles apply to laboratory safety. In addition, "Special Topics" explore additional safety issues relevant to particular sections. As you progress through the text, you'll learn everything you need to know to stay safe in the lab, from the latest "best practices" in chemical lab procedures to uptodate explanations of the laws and regulations related to laboratory safety. Most importantly, you'll learn how to identify and manage safety concerns before they can do harm., "...this substantial and engaging text offers a wealth of practical (in every sense of the word) advice...Every undergraduate laboratory, and, ideally, every undergraduate chemist, should have a copy of what is by some distance the best book I have seen on safety in the undergraduate laboratory."   Chemistry World, March 2011 Laboratory Safety for Chemistry Students is uniquely designed to accompany students throughout their four-year undergraduate education and beyond, progressively teaching them the skills and knowledge they need to learn their science and stay safe while working in any lab.

    The seller was kind enough to send me a USPS tracking number so that I could have a good idea as to when I’d receive my item. It came a day later than expected (probably due to the cold snap and snow storm here) and the seller was quick to respond when I voiced my concern on its arrival. It was packaged very well, no water damage or dings. Would recommend buying books from this seller!

    My item shipped, but I never received it. I contacted the seller, and the seller quickly responded and offered to ship another with a deep discount. I requested a refund, and the seller quickly obliged, and refunded money promptly. I would buy from this seller again!

    This item was just as described. It came in a box so survived shipping without damage. Arrived quickly in just a few days after ordering. I was quite pleased with the experience and will order again.
