	Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Technique
	By: R. Ian Freshney ISBN: 0471453293 Publisher: Wiley-Liss Release Date: 29 July, 2005 Bioscience book rank: 156785	Based on protocols in this book, I devised methods to complete my own experiments. I found the insights contained in the book completely indispensable. The range of topics it contains and the detail with which Freshney explains each point made the process of designing conditions for experiments rational and approachable. I highly recommend this book. There are not a lot of glossy pretty pictures, which is a good thing for a no-nonsense instruction manual that gets the point across with what pictures it did have. I found it to be a very good complement to my cell culture class. Everything I learned in the lab was put into context nicely. I purchased this book with a description of like new. I would say this is new. The previous person who used this did not even break in the binder. This is an excellent reference book, I have enjoyed reading the text up to this point.
	The Reference Manual of Woody Plant Propagation: From Seed to Tissue Culture : A Practical Working Guide to the Propagation of over 1100 Species, Va
	By: Michael A. Dirr, Charles W. Heuser ISBN: 0942375092 Publisher: Varsity Pr Inc Release Date: 14 October, 2006 Bioscience book rank: 73975	Great reference book! Gives you all the information you need to propagate--nurserymen to laymen. I propagated woody plants as a sideline business for a number of years and considered this book THE source. For many species, specific concentrations for rooting hormones are specified. This is invaluable information since for many plants there is an optimal concentration and using a higher or lower concentration of reduces rooting success rates as well as root development. Dirr has done all the research and you reap all the rewards. His conclusions are backed up by many scientific studies by various individuals and groups. The first part gives a summary of the diferent propagation methods and the second part has very detailed data on specific species. I save hundreds of dollars each year by propagating by own southern magnolias, red tip photinas, and navel oranges. This is, by far, the best book on propagation out there!!

	Commercial Propagation of Orchids in Tissue Culture: Seed-Flasking Methods
	By: Kay Schlosser Greisen ISBN: 0972227008 Publisher: Kay S. Greisen Specialties Release Date: July, 2002 Bioscience book rank: 208311	The book had a lot of good info, I just hope I can one day understand it all. If I had laboratory experience/equipment, this book may have been useful. It's definitely for the pro. Gives all chemicals needed and the function of those chemicals. Timeline for harvesting seed pods for genus and species. All about starting from seed. No information on creating plantlets from an explant.
	Plant Tissue Culture Concepts and Laboratory Exercises, Second Edition

	General Techniques of Cell Culture (Handbooks in Practical Animal Cell Biology)
	By: Maureen A. Harrison, Ian F. Rae ISBN: 052157496X Publisher: Cambridge University Press Release Date: 13 October, 1997 Bioscience book rank: 675452	Whether a first year college student or a seasoned researcher, General Techniques of Cell Culture is a must. GTCC simplifies the complicated world of cell culturing without insulting. The authors, Maureen A. Harrison and Ian F. Rae, make no assumptions about their readers, and take the task of explaining large amounts of scientific information in an organized and easy to read format. This handbook goes beyond general lab techniques and provides not only the "how-to", but also gives the developing lab the where at, as it rounds out each section with a directory of services and researchable references. By providing time honored techniques, General Techniques of Cell Culture also takes some of the trial and error out of propagating healthy cells in the lab. This alone should make the transition from book to bench less tedius and more productive.
