Cell Biology and Genetics Biology The Unity and Diversity of Life
This ediion Biology The Unity and Diversity of Life includes a wealth of new informaion about recent discoveries in biology (details can be found in the Power Bibliography,wich lists journal articles and other references we used in the revision process). Descriptions of curent research,along with photos and videos of scientists who carry it out,underscore the concept that science is an ongoing endeavor carried out by a diverse community of people. We discuss not only what was discovered,but also how the discoveries were made,how our understanding has changed over time,and what remains undiscovered. At the same time,we provide a thorough,accessible introduction to well-established concepts and principles that underpin modern biology. We examine every topic from an evolutionary perspective and empashize the connections between all forms of life. Throughout the book,we revised text and diagrams to make difficult concepts easier for students to grasp. We also continue to focus on real world applications of the topics we discuss. This edition provides expanded coverage of human health and diseases. It also covers in more detail the many ways in which human activities can alter the environment and threaten both human health and the bodiversity of our planet.
