Title overview
Biology helps us understand the living world and the scientific principles that shape everyday life. Biology: Life on Earth with Physiology introduces students to core biological concepts through an engaging inquiry-based approach that connects science to real-world events, discoveries and challenges. Designed for non-majors and mixed biology courses, the text combines accessible explanations, compelling case studies and thought-provoking questions to help students build scientific literacy and develop a lasting appreciation for biology.
By encouraging students to ask questions, analyse evidence and think critically, this resource supports deeper understanding of both biological concepts and the scientific process. Real-world examples, current case studies and inquiry-focused learning features help students connect classroom learning to issues in health, genetics, biodiversity, evolution and environmental sustainability, preparing them to engage confidently with science in their personal and professional lives.
Who It's For
Ideal for students enrolled in non-major or mixed biology courses who want to develop scientific literacy, critical-thinking skills and a practical understanding of the biological principles that shape life on Earth.
