Product Description "Life" integrates scholarship, an engaging narrative style, effective pedagogy, and art-work into a cohesive presentation of biological data and ideas that should interest students. The third edition features a new co-author - H.Craig Heller and new information - from new molecular techniques in biotechnology, immunology, and systematics. New chapters have been added on conservation biology and on recombinant DNA. Organized differently, the text addresses evolution before diversity and physiology. The artwork blends scientific precision and visual impact. | ||

Good Cost The book was not in the best of shape but it was still a good book! | ||

Weird Story but Happy Ending I order this book for my class and it was what I expected, brand new and nicely wrapped. What I didn't expect was that the book would actually get to my friend's cousin's house instead of mine. Her cousin's house was a block from my house and she thought the book was my friend's sister, who has the same first name as me and who was also waiting for textbook(s) from Amazon too. The book got into my friend's hands who realized that the book belonged to me. Anyways, long story short, I dropped the class and sold my book and got a little money off of it for my art supplies. Oh yeah, Happy Valentine's Day. | ||
Overall, Good Principles of Biology Book needs to provide a little more detail on some subjects (even though author is limited on writing based on how [much] publishers want them to write); overall, great book for a Principles of Biology course | ||
