7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book covers fundamental concepts of genetics, ecology, biochemistry, cladistics, evolution, radiometric dating, cellular division, descriptions of all of the body systems and how they compare to those of other animals, etc...over 1000 pages of useful knowledge for Bio majors and interested laymen. Some people gave this book a low rating..well, almost every single one was due to a complaint concerning the seller of the book...REMEMBER RATE THE QUAILTY OF THE PRODUCT not the seller!!!
Very good book for any biologist January 31, 2010

This book is what my Biology teacher recommended most on a list of similar books for the class. This particular book is easy to read and contains more illustrations than most Biology books, thus making the class much easier to learn in. Any student who is currently taking Biology should look into reading this book.
