5.0 out of 5 stars Great book
This is a great book: very easy to read, and contains plenty of information for introductory biology. In addition, it has a free website that comes with the book, and contains lots of helpful quizzes, study guides, videos, etc. A wonderful book!

1.0 out of 5 stars It's awful.
I have taken higher level bios, including medical sciences. O only took the class because I needed a science elective. Figured hell, Life science has to be easy. This book is harder to understand with it's cute language. Atoms hardly make sense after the first read and it feels literally like you are sitting in class with airhead for a teacher.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essentials of The Living World, September 26, 2009

This review is from: Essentials of The Living World (Paperback)
I am not a science major, by any means. Hey, I just need the class to become an interior designer. The book is definately not high school material. It is written on college level and meant for higher intellect. Considering my background, this means I must read and re-read this book to understand it. However, once I got going, I have to admit, it is quite interesting. I think I may learn something from it, after all! Well, gotta go. I have to read chapter 7!

The seller was very curtious and notified me that he actually had a paperback version verses the hardcover. I really appreciated that.

This review is from: Essentials of The Living World (Paperback)
for most of you, this book is required. It is very easy to understand HOWEVER, most of the book is about evolution and mentions nothing about other theories.... It also contradicts itself many times over when dealing with subjects such as cells and evolution.
