Publisher's Synopsis
"Biology: Exploring Life" gives a modern, accessible approach to first-year biology. The authors' unified treatment of the subject, their lively writing style, and the illustrations (all of which are four-colour) make this text attractive to students and lecturers alike. Each chapter begins with a chapter outline, ends with a synopsis covering main concepts and key terms, presents review and synthesis questions and suggests additional readings. A unique feature is the inclusion in each chapter of "biolines", descriptions of ongoing research and current controversies. Self-contained chapters may be taught in various sequences, to suit different courses.
