Books with title Biology: Human Biology

BIOLOGY, Sixth Edition continues to maintain the standard of excellence that has made it one of the leading college biology textbooks throughout the world. Professors and students alike appreciate this book's readability, accuracy, and clear and exciting presentation of biology. Its three unifying themes-transmission of information, evolution of life, and flow of energy through living systems-are integrated throughout the book as a framework for understanding biology. The book's learning aids have always been recognized as outstanding. In this new edition, the authors have focused more on the process of science, emphasizing how the body of scientific knowledge has been derived. The greatly enhanced illustration program features the addition of many new figures designed by award-winning scientific illustrator, Elizabeth Morales.

Biology is the study of how living things function, how they relate to one another, and how they evolved. Because living things vary greatly in how they live and how they developed, the field of biology is broken into many distinct specialty areas, including microbiology, plant and animal physiology, ecology, epidemiology, cell biology, and marine biology. Biologists play an important role in research to fight diseases and develop life-improving technologies.Careers in Focus: Biology, Third Edition explores 20 careers in this important--and rapidly growing--scientific field.Job profiles include:-Astrobiologists -Biochemists -Biotechnology patent lawyers -Cytotechnologists -Ethnoscientists -Genetic scientists -Marine biologists -Naturalists -Toxicologists -Zoologists.

This laboratory manual is designed for an introductory majors biology course with a broad survey of basic laboratory techniques. The experiments and procedures are simple, safe, easy to perform, and especially appropriate for large classes. Few experiments require a second class-meeting to complete the procedure. Each exercise includes many photographs, traditional topics, and experiments that help students learn about life. Procedures within each exercise are numerous and discrete so that an exercise can be tailored to the needs of the students, the style of the instructor, and the facilities available.
