From the Back Cover

A Discovery-Based Approach.This manual differs from others in a variety of ways, some of which are listed below. Perhaps the most noticeable difference is that you are often asked to provide more direction for your own learning, while your instructor steps back and acts as a facilitator. As you will see, many exercises require you to design and use your own experimental protocols and then analyze the results. We have used this approach because it allows you to strengthen your critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
