Biology for the Informed Citizen with Physiology
by Donna M. Bozzone Douglas S. GreenWith Biology for the Informed Citizen, students connect the concepts of biology to the consequences of biology. Authors Donna M. Bozzone and Douglas S. Green teach the concepts of biology, evolution, and the process of science so that students can apply their knowledge as informed consumers and users of scientific information. <p><p> Cases: An engaging biological issue opens every chapter and is revisited throughout <p> Concepts: Foundational biological ideas are introduced within the context of important cultural and social issues <p> Consequences: The concepts and consequences of biology are connected in order to help students make informed decisions about biological issues
Biology of Bats
by William A. WimsattBats had mastered flight eons before man's own lineage began. Their unique volitional mode was obviously advantageous, for adaptive radiation within the group has been little short of extraordinary. Today Chiroptera represent the second largest order of mammals in number of species and the largest in overall abundance; excluding man, and possibly rodents, they are also the most widely distributed land-based mammals.
Biology of the Invertebrates
by Jan PechenikThis textbook is the most concise and readable invertebrates book in terms of detail and pedagogy (other texts do not offer boxed readings, a second color, end of chapter questions, or pronunciation guides). All phyla of invertebrates are covered (comprehensive) with an emphasis on unifying characteristics of each group.

Biology: Concepts And Applications
by Cecie Starr Lisa Starr Christine A. EversIn the new edition of BIOLOGY: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS, authors Cecie Starr, Christine A. Evers, and Lisa Starr have partnered with the National Geographic Society to develop a text designed to engage and inspire. This trendsetting text introduces the key concepts of biology to non-biology majors using clear explanations and unparalleled visuals. While mastering core concepts, each chapter challenges students to question what they read and apply the concepts learned, providing students with the critical thinking skills and science knowledge they need in life. Renowned for its writing style the new edition is enhanced with exclusive content from the National Geographic Society, including over 200 new photos and illustrations. New People Matter sections in most chapters profile National Geographic Explorers and Grantees who are making significant contributions in their field, showing students how concepts in the chapter are being applied in biological research. Each chapter concludes with an 'Application' section highlighting real-world uses of biology and helping students make connections to chapter content.

Biology: Concepts and Applications
by Cecie Starr Lisa Starr Christine A. EversBIOLOGY: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS supplies an 800 page, introductory issues-oriented approach with enormous instructional power. Starr supports mastery throughout while encouraging the critical thinking students need as citizens, voters, parents, and consumers. The "Impacts, Issues" and "How Would You Vote?" features new to this edition make biology come alive. An "Impacts, Issues" case study opens each chapter focusing on a biology-related societal issue. Short films that expand on the issue are on the free Student CD. Each chapter's "How Would You Vote?" asks students to consider biology-related news, apply knowledge, cast a vote on the web and see state and nationwide voting tallies. The access codes that accompany all new copies provide online access to 1) BiologyNow, a learning tool that helps students assess their unique study needs through pretests, post-test and personalized learning plans; 2) InfoTrac, a library of full text articles; 3) vMentor, a live tutoring service and 4) "How Do I Prepare," a feature that allows students to review basic math, chemistry, and other skills that will help them more easily master introductory biology. And now with an MP3 download of this title, you don't have to lose prep time during a long commute'any MP3 player lets you or your students listen and review the text at the gym, in the library, at the office ? anywhere! Starr is the most successful author in non-majors biology because of her clear and engaging writing
Biology: Concepts and Connections (4th Edition)
by Jane B. Reece Neil A. Campbell Martha R. Taylor Lawrence G. MitchellThis book makes students familiar with the scientific process, in particular with the posing and testing of hypotheses. With an improved introduction to the process of science in Chapter 1, students will be better equipped to appreciate the many examples throughout the book of how scientific concepts emerge from observations and experimental evidence. The book also puts human faces on science with "Talking About Science" modules. A number of these profiles of interesting scientists are new to this edition.
