Summary, Etc. Note: |
Review: "The contributors provide 12 chapters and 10 appendices that should provide researchers, administrators, veterinarians, students, and IACUC members with a reference volume. This book summarizes information critically necessary for the effective and efficient management and operation of an IACUC, and as such should be made available to IACUC members and administrative officials in very institution using laboratory animals."--BOOK JACKET. |
