With an extraordinary reputation for authority and accuracy, this landmark biology text continues to be an invaluable learning partner for students and teachers. The authors focus on the "big ideas" of biology: each chapter is organized around key concepts that build in a logical way, and are clearly explained and reinforced by the text discussion and illustration. The straightforward writing style, appropriate level of depth, and judiciously-selected coverage are other hallmarks. A comprehensive new supplements package includes a highly-interactive student learning CD-ROM. The Special Edition of The Biology Place allows students to explore animations, take quizzes, and access the most up-to-date biology resources on the web.
College Standard
| Customer Rating:  | | This book set the bar for general bio classes. I've seen this text used in high school AP bio classes as well as many college bio classes. It is well organized and provides an great explanation for things you need to understand. The picture help to further understanding. |
This is the book other biology texts want to be when they grow up
| Customer Rating: | Hands down, Campbell's Biology is the most beautifully written and illustrated biology textbook on the market and has remained so through many, many editions. I am a plant biologist and was pleased to see that even at the introductory level, this book gave plant life equal prominence with animal biology. If you want to fall in love with biology, this is the text to get you there. Campbell and Reese accompanied me through freshman biology, every upper level undergrad and graduate biology course I took, and finally served as an indispensable reference when studying for my qualifying examinations. I don't currently teach intro bio, but if and when I do, Campbell and Reese will lead my selections for the textbook.
On more practical matters for the potential book buyer--While it is fantastic to have the most up-to-date edition, we are talking intro bio here. So you really can't go wrong by grabbing a discount copy of the sixth edition and hanging onto it for dear life. Every edition of this text is worthy of a place in your permanent collection. And it is heads and shoulders above a crowded field of competitors. Couldn't offer any higher praise than this. |
A Skillfully Written Textbook
| Customer Rating: | | This is an exceptional textbook. Each topic (covered clearly and thoroughly) lays the necessary foundation for each successive topic. The diagrams provide further clarity to the material and are placed accessibly on the same page as the written text. I highly recommend this text to anyone who wants a solid grasp on the fundamentals of biology. |
Great source for highschool
| Customer Rating: | | Thank god I bought this book! I had just recently forgotten my biology book for a project I have to do over Christmas break, which was a newer book for the curriculum and instead of having to search for second rate information over the internet this book contains everything you need. In my opinion the new Standard Prentice Hall Textbook is only a quarter of the quality of this book. |
Excellent Advanced High School Text
| Customer Rating: | | I used this textbook in AP Biology almost a decade ago and I still have fond memories. It is concise and well written. It's also a good basic reference but perhaps not as detailed as Alberts Molecular Biology of the Cell. Unlike Alberts, you can read this one cover to cover! |
