Known for its unique 'Special Topic' chapters and emphasis on everyday health concerns, the new edition of Biology of Humans: Concepts, Applications, and Issues continues to personalise the study of human biology using a conversational writing style, vibrant, easy-to-follow illustrations, abundant applications, and a new emphasis on using everyday science literacy skills. The authors provide a practical, friendly introduction to the study of the human body, preparing students to navigate today's rapidly expanding and shifting world of health information.
Each chapter now features brand-new 'Consider This Case' exercises and 'Finding and Evaluating Information' activities that challenge students to think critically and apply their knowledge to solve real-world cases. Along with scientific updates and content improvements throughout the text, this edition also includes a new 'Special Topic' chapter on the Obesity Epidemic.
