McGraw-Hill Professional, 2003. - 401 pages.
This book is for people who want to get acquainted with the concepts of basic biology without taking a formal course. It can serve as a supplemental text in a classroom, tutored, or home-schooling environment. It should also be useful for career changers who need to refresh their knowledge of the subject. I recommend that you start at the beginning of this book and go
straight through.
This book seeks to give you an intuitive grasp of biology and its terminology. It helps do this by presenting you with 4 icons (cartoon pictures) representing various facets of Biological Order, versus Biological Disorder. Key facts within these categories are numbered in the page margins. You are encouraged to briefly rewrite these key facts in the blanks provided at the end of each chapter.
