 Concepts in Biology 12th edition by Eldon Enger February 16, 2007

This is a very well written and easy to understand book. It is very similar to
Biology: Concepts & Connections with Student CD-ROM (5th Edition)
in content but it has clearer pictures in my opinion. What this one is not, it is not the 'lab manual' even though its reffered to it as such because it does not contain the experiment excercises the companion book by the same title contains. This is just a paperback textbook.

I found this book to be a very easy read. It has great photos and diagrams which illustrate the different concepts. I used the CD rom quite a lot. It has short video clips and tests which are useful.

This book was very easy to read, I read the whole thing in a little over a week. Highly reccommended.

I had to use this textbook for a class, which you probably do to. So you probably have to buy this one. It was okay, not hard to read, but I won't be keeping it as a reference work. The authors definitely have an agenda, promoting certain kinds of nutrition over others with very little reasoning, also seems to act like a lot of alternative medicine couldn't possible work even when there are studies to the contrary. I guess it handles the rudiments of biology okay. I will be selling this when I'm finished with this semester. Oh, and there appears to be both a hardcover and a paperback. I bought the paperback used, and it seems to have matched perfectly with the hardcover. Never even used the CD.
