The eminently successful author team of Arms and Camp continue in their tradition of scientific education with clear writing and an all-new color art program, including illustrated tables that make information more accessible to students. This class-proven text uses an atoms-to-ecology organization to provide a thorough introduction to biological concepts that prepares students for advanced course work. Evolution is introduced early in the book reflecting its importance to the whole of biology. This edition focuses on thoroughly explaining basic concepts using an active "problem solving" approach and de-emphasizes biological jargon in favor of communicating ideas and principles. Features: * "How do we know?" boxes focus on the experimental aspects of biology and the scientific process showing students how biological information is obtained through specific problem-solving methods and investigative techniques. * Symbiosis is introduced as a major theme of evolution to balance the coverage of competition/predation as evolutionary forces and strategies. * Highly praised pedagogy includes learning objectives, self-quizzes, numerous tables, and discussion questions. Key concepts near the beginning of each chapter and concept summaried at the end of each chapter set students' priorities in approaching and reviewing the material. * Illustrated tables help students visualize description of biological features and facts. * Short chapters are easily read in one sitting and are largely independent of each other. Cross referencing hcapters "fills in " needed material. This format permits the text to be used in a wide range of curricula. New to this edition: * This edition features new material on genetics, cell biology, plant biology, and extensive new material on the origin of kingdoms and the development of evolutionary relationships. * The sections on protein synthesis, embryonic development, classification, and immunology, have been completely rewritten. * A specially designed, highly instructional labeling system for all drawings and photos logically guides students through the examination of illustrations making the information clear and accessible. * A new chapter on genetic engineering provides up-to-the-minute coverage of this timely topic. The text's relevance is further enhanced with a new chapter (Ch. 50) on human ecology and natural resources. * Sexual reproduction and embryonic development are covered in separate chapters permitting appropriate coverage of gene transcription and protein synthesis.
