Book Description
Discusses the vital aspects of how to make a proper and permanent record of research work. Goes beyond the mechanical of simply filling in the notebook pages with details on the skills needed to create proper records of research, observations, and results. Helps to increase awareness of what is being done in the lab and to develop a flexible style of notekeeping that will serve a variety of research environments.

Thorough Guide to Keeping an Industrial Laboratory Notebook.......2006-05-31
As a technical rewriter for an international patent office in Tokyo, Japan, I came across this book sitting on my desk. It provides a thorough guide to keeping an industrial laboratory notebook. Topics discussed included the following:
* types of suitable acid-free ink and paper for laboratory notebooks
* suitable methods for storage of laboratory notebooks
* differences between academic notekeeping and industrial notekeeping
* the importance of teaching notekeeping skills, starting with the sophomore year in college
* the importance of witnesses and clearly dated and qualified notebook entries in the patent industry
* good layout of the laboratory notebook, together with examples of the same
* electronic counterparts to the laboratory notebook
The writing was clear and easy to read and follow, and included numerous examples and photographs.
Of particular note were the descriptions and examples of the critical importance of witnesses in laboratory notekeeping for patents. The author gave an example of how the testimony of a witness for a Dr. Kassel on May 6, 1938, was found to be "even stronger proof of conception than the inventor's own ... records" (p. 108).
On a related note, the author discussed the importance of continuity (diligence) in securing patents by explaining that even if it could be shown in court that one inventor had initially conceived of an idea before another, the initial inventor could still lose the patent to the later inventor if the latter showed much greater diligence in pursuing the invention.
This title shed much new light on aspects of industrial notekeeping. The only reason that I did not give this review five stars was that the chapter on the electronic notebook was outdated; it did not take into account the World Wide Web. This is understandable, considering that the title was published in 1985; nevertheless, there should be an updated edition, which does not seem to exist. However, the rest of the chapter, and the rest of the book, was sufficiently general in scope to continue to be of great use, even now. I would actually have given this book 4.5 stars if possible.
Overall, the title proved useful and easy to read, and I finished reading the entire work in just a few days. Highly recommended.

Good summary of standard industrial practice.......1999-09-02
If you need to keep a lab notebook for your work you'll probably end up getting instructions like these. I picked up my copy used; I believe that the American Chemical Society has published a revised edition.
I write a notebook for personal reasons, so some of the detail about getting pages notarized and witnessed seem a bit of overkill.

AMAZING!.......2000-09-06
AMAZING!!! That is the only word that could describe this book. It's well made, easy to read, and highly interesting. The bounding is permanent plus it's three hole punched - a very hard to find feature!
The words date, Experiment, Name, Lab Partner, and Witness are very easy to read.
Plus, it comes with a foreward that has to do with Safety in the Laborartory. It's highly interesting - perfect reading for a Friday or Saturday night!
Everyone should have a copy of this amazing book!

Great way to organize research.......1999-10-04
I bought this lab book for my Introduction to Experimental Biology class at MIT. It provided an excellent grid for writing data, objectives, and other findings. It's a must-have for any bio student.

Book Description
George Starkey—chymistry tutor to Robert Boyle, author of immensely popular alchemical treatises, and probably early America's most important scientist—reveals in these pages the daily laboratory experimentation of a seventeenth-century alchemist.
The editors present in this volume transcriptions of Starkey's texts, their translations, and valuable commentary for the modern reader. Dispelling the myth that alchemy was an irrational enterprise, this remarkable collection of laboratory notebooks and correspondence reveals the otherwise hidden methodologies of one of the seventeenth century's most influential alchemists.

Exceeds Expectations.......2007-02-25
I usually buy my laboratory notebooks (Hayden McNeil) from my university book store. The 50-page ones usually sell for $17.00 + tax. I was particularly impressed with this item, because it had 100 pages, and I paid a lot less for it. It arrived in near-perfect condition - shrink wrap. The laboratory notebook has the Periodic Table of the Elements, conversion factors, physical constants, vapor pressure of water at various temperatures (fairly useful - no need to consult the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics), 15 cm ruler (not very useful), and solubility rules for ionic compounds in water.
This item arrived within three days of my order (Free Shipping option).
For its price and professional quality, I highly recommend its purchase.

Book Description
The book was written for earth scientists who wish to get acquainted with the dynamic field of applied remote sensing for hydrocarbon exploration. It offers three ingredients which are generally lacking in other remote sensing text books: (1) examples of satellite image interpretation that are supported by surface and, more importantly, subsurface controls; (2) demonstration of a systematic approach to the interpretation and integration of satellite imagery data as part of an exploration program; and (3) synthesis of the processes that lead to the structural, geomorphic and spectral signature which are manifested on satellite imagery data. Berger's approach is governed by the exploration practices of major oil companies which rely heavily in their exploration effort on the use of seismic and well data. Thus, the focus of the book is on the recognition of geological features that can be used to constrain and improve the interpretation and integration of these conventional exploration tools. There is no attempt to present remote sensing as a "stand alone" prospecting tool. The examples cited in this book are based on case histories which were conducted at various Exxon affiliate offices by the author and colleagues from the remote sensing and structural analysis groups of Exxon Production Research Company, Houston, Texas, as well as material used at EPRCo. for training purposes.
