The new 8th edition continues that tradition and advances into modern biology by featuring the latest in cutting edge content reflective of the rapid advances in biology. That same modern perspective was brought into the completely new art program offering readers a dynamic, realistic, and accurate, visual program.
Well done I ordered this textbook for an organismal biology class last semester. This book is very well put together, easy to use, and beautifully illustrated. It is not as in depth as I would have liked, being a biology nut, but it is a fantastic introductory text.
