Biology

by Yael Avissar, Jung Choi, Jean DeSaix

Biology is designed to cover the scope and sequence requirements of a typical two-semester biology course for science majors. The text provides comprehensive coverage of foundational research and core biology concepts through an evolutionary lens. Biology includes rich features that engage students in scientific inquiry, highlight careers in the biological sciences, and offer everyday applications. The book also includes clicker questions to help students understand—and apply—key concepts.

Difficult to read on the Kindle. Read more like a high school-level biology textbook than a college-level one. I like that resources like this are freely available online to hopefully reduce the cost of textbooks by students (alongside library books, used books, and renting textbooks).

Wow, that's a tough textbook to follow. Not an intuitive organization and impossible to use as a reference.

Read the book for a class I had taken. I thought it would be boring at first. It was actually pretty helpful with full descriptions of scientific terminalogy and pictures. It's a read for all the senses (except smell I suppose).
