5.0 out of 5 stars An easy-to-read book that still avoids over-simplification
Although Life on Earth is meant to be a textbook, I find it to be an excellent reference book. The design does not force the reader to begin at the first chapter and read sequentially. Terms are explained in clear english, and the glossary is very thorough. Illustrations are well-drawn and fitting, and the layout is easy on the eyes. Also, the chapter summary after...

2.0 out of 5 stars It was the right book, but in pretty bad conditions
I recently bought a Bio. 3 book. I received it in about a week in half, it was exactly the right book, but it was in pretty bad conditions
the envelope was all dirty and broken, so it was the book.
I always buy my books on line, and i had never received anyone in this condition.

By A Customer
This review is from: Life on Earth (Paperback)
Although Life on Earth is meant to be a textbook, I find it to be an excellent reference book. The design does not force the reader to begin at the first chapter and read sequentially. Terms are explained in clear english, and the glossary is very thorough. Illustrations are well-drawn and fitting, and the layout is easy on the eyes. Also, the chapter summary after each section is invaulable to students. I cannot recommend this book more to anyone who is interested in Biology or needs a reference book about the workings of life on Earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended for students who use the Life on Earth Textbook, March 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I decided to purchase this workbook to help me study with the textbook and I found it EXTREMELY helpful! I usually read the chapters and answer the review questions but, sometimes that is just not enough. This workbook help me further understand the content and whether or not I should review the chapter again. I found myself taking the test and having flashbacks on some of the questions this workbook asked me.
I highly recommended this workbook for students whose professors goes by the textbook.

2.0 out of 5 stars It was the right book, but in pretty bad conditions, February 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I recently bought a Bio. 3 book. I received it in about a week in half, it was exactly the right book, but it was in pretty bad conditions
the envelope was all dirty and broken, so it was the book.
I always buy my books on line, and i had never received anyone in this condition.
what i notice was that the person who sent it to me did not used a bubble envelope.
All the other books that i had bought before had arrived in a bubble envelope and i had always received then in great conditions.

I bought this book as a first year biology text for school. It is an excellent book on biology and basic organic chemistry. The large format allows for many good color illustrations of the material. Even if you are not using it as a textbook, I recommend it to anyone interested in biology.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great intro book!, August 18, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is for those wanting an easy reading introduction. Its very informative, well put together and easy to follow with adequate graphics. (I hated the questions at the end of each chapter though, ok lets face it they were easy you just had to really think about them).
I wouldn't recommend for a biology buff but definitely all others!

2.0 out of 5 stars HARD TO FOLLOW, July 27, 2004
I just finished my biology class with this text book. Over all I was very disappointed in this book. I read each chapter that was assigned to us by the professor and worked my study guides but still came out of the each chapter more confused. With the jargon they put in this text book it doesn't do the student any favors in the layouts you will need to spend time to investigate some of the information on your own to obtain a better understanding of BIOLOGY.
