Concepts in Biology 14th Edition

The book is good, the class sucked.The book is laid out well. It presents material in a logical method. If you are anti evolution you might not be impressed. It covers the basics of the organization of life, different thoughts on it, the life cycle, the basics of relevant chemistry, then moves into more complex topics. It is a basic biology text though. Still, do yourself a favor and make sure you have at least a semester of beginning chemistry. You will be glad you did. The sciences overlap so much that you really should be prepared to understand them well.We used this in conjunction with an online area, which was really nice.I am now using it to homeschool my sophomore. While it is a college text, if your student has had algebra and chemistry, this is written well enough that it is very usable for homeschool for upper classes.

Perfect for renting I’m not a bio major and the price was right for me. Was required for the class but my professor doesn't really use it I look at it when studying

We didn't use this for my class, but I read some sections on my own to learn the information a little bit more in depth. The book did a good job of explaining the content.

Useful if needed but the professor removed this from the class requirements after the Spring semester had started.

I bought this book for college. The college bookstore is selling SELECTED chapters of this book for twice the price, used. Can't beat new for this price!Not sure how to really review a book... it's a biology book. It's about biology and it's good. I like it. If you like biology and need it for classes, then get it. It also smells good.The end.

The same comments I wrote about my son's Art History book apply here, but in this case, the price was doubly painful because in the sciences information is changing by the minute, and I assume that next year, if not the year after, this book will be available electronically, with links and instant updates.I think Amazon could probably find it in themselves to offer these textbooks at a lower price.

This book was in great condition for a rental!
