5.0 out of 5 stars A Memorable Textbook, September 18, 2002
By 
Dave Redmond (Virginia Beach, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Biology (Hardcover)
It's not often you remember the title (admittedly not a complicated one) and author of a textbook some 20 years after you read it, but I have. I have not read it recently, not since college in the early 80s, but have resolved to pick it up again. It is not merely for the student, but for the inquisitive mind. Whatever shortcomings one might imagine, I cannot recall a better, more complete textbook on any subject.

4.0 out of 5 stars Macro Heavy, September 20, 2000
By 
Zachary Frank (Colorado Springs, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Biology (Hardcover)
While this book is excellently written and formatted, it is far too light on micro- and molecular biology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great biology book for someone between the ages of 15-99, November 21, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Biology (Hardcover)
Great book of biology, with great images and pictures. Sinthetized but at the same time expanded idea of what every concept of biology is.
