A clear, well-written textbook that gives a useful (necessarily broad-strokes) overview of the field of biology, definitely a good springboard for further study within the life sciences. I'll need to work through it a second (and third?) time to really get the most out of it, but that's just a function of how much information it contains.

I passed my CLEP test because of this book.

I've "devoured" some previous editions, and I can say, even though the content may not appear drastically different each time, the world of biology is absolutely captivating! Every single minute invested in revisiting its fundamental principles is an experience that is nothing short of exhilarating. This marvelous book, along with many others, holds a cherished spot on my yearly revisiting list.
