Commentary
What's Wrong with Cookbooks?
Addison Ault
Department of Chemistry, Cornell College, Mount Vernon, IA 52314-1098
Cover
October 2002
Vol. 79 No. 10
p. 1177
Abstract
I present a defense of cookbooks and lab manuals. Both can provide reliable procedures; both are good places to start; neither need stand in the way of understanding, insight, or imagination.
