I used this book for a non-majors biology class that I taught this Summer. I didn't read the book, but the teaching materials were pretty good.

For a college textbook this was actually an easy and interesting read. The authors did a good job putting in real life scenarios that the chapter could be applied to. Will be interesting to see if COVID-19 will be included in future editions.
