SCIENCE<br />

Features<br />

• Evolution—A strong evolutionary approach. It delivers a clear theme<br />

of evolution through natural selection through out each chapter by<br />

use of genomes and proteomes.<br />

• Content—Top notch and break through content provides the most accurate and<br />

up-to-date reference book on the market.<br />

is emphasized in the Feature Investigation boxes throughout the text. Each Feature<br />

Investigation highlights important experiments in the various fields of biology and<br />

the relevance to the discoveries.<br />

• Art—Instructive visuals. The student can understand what is going on in the figures/<br />

photos without necessarily reading the narrative. Visual learners will especially benefit<br />

from the clear and concise art/photos. Brand new art, all consistent!<br />
