Customer Reviews

not well written - Rick Dahl - San Lorenzo, CA USA
The lab book needs an errata. There are too many flaws and is not written to the style of the various subjects covered.

Best of a bad crop - A. Wagner -
As an oceanography professor I have used this book in the past and unfortunately use it to this day (at least until I develop my own lab book) and it is honestly the best of a bad crop of oceanography lab books. Of all the lab manuals I have looked at, they fall into two categories: too simple or too complex. This one falls into the latter category. Fortunately, there are enough labs that if you skip some questions I would consider "usable", not great not even good but "usable". If your professor requires this book, get it and photocopy the relevant pages to turn in and then sell the book as complete. You'll get more money back.

Feh - Melissa A. Kranis - Miami
The only reason I got this in all honesty was for my class in Oceanography lab. But the exercises in the book seem to assume that the reader knows more than what the book tells them. Usually a book like this has the answers in the section you read before the exercise, here, that's not the case. You have to find the answers elsewhere. Or make them up and pray the teacher doesn't read it.
