Product Description
As in previous editions of this textbook, the 5th edition shows biology not as a collection of facts, but as a dynamic discipline. The student's understanding of biological processes is developed through pedagogy, using narrative, experimental contexts and art within the scholarship. This edition contains new artwork incorporating biological "storyboards"; new chapters on molecular evolution, higher brain functions and animal embryology; and genetics coverage expanded by new co-author and genetics specialist, David Sadava. The student CD-ROM - "Life: the science of biology 5.0: Molecules, Cells, and Genes" has more than 1500 topics and has been class-tested. It includes self-quizzes, an audio pronunciation guide for more than 300 terms, and 40 minicourses expanding on the book's coverage of topics from mitosis to genetics information.

The book is great. Got it to teach an intro bio course and have wound up using it to study the basics for molecular biology and animal behavior. Really touches on many disciplines of science, sometimes briefly and even in depth.

I recently ordered and received, on time, Life: The Science of Biology book from this company. The book came exactly how they advertised it. IT WAS BRAND NEW, and it was cheeper than what I would normally pay for a textbook.

We're only in chapter one since the semester just started, but the reading was very easy to understand and so far it seems like it will stay as comfortable reading. :)
