Biology

Biology by Mader, Sylvia. hardcover edition. ISBN: 8580001064802.

Biology is a comprehensive introductory biology textbook for non-majors or mixed-majors courses that covers biology in a traditional order from the structure and function of the cell to the organization of the biosphere. The book, which centers on the evolution and diversity of organisms, is appropriate for a one- or two-semester course. Its no wonder that Sylvia Maders Biology continues to be a text thats appreciated as much by instructors as it is by the students who use it. The ninth edition is the epitome of Maders expertise: Its concise, precise writing uses an economy of words to present the material as succinctly and clearly as possible, thereby enabling students -- even non-majors -- to understand the concepts without necessarily asking the instructor to explain further.
