Product Description

Review

Review of First Edition:

"It is beautifully illustrated, and contains many eye-catching photographs and large, colourful diagrams. The explanations are clear and interesting, often interspersed with a touch of dry humour. …a readable and enjoyable text.
This book will stimulate able students to pursue topics further, and will provide an excellent framework of understanding for those of more limited abilities."
Journal of Biological Education

Format:Paperback
This book is really clear and is well illustrated and makes for intesting reading. The book starts will Biology of the Cell before moving on the the Systems of the body and then Genetics, and then the Environment. It encompasses all those apects of Biology that affects humans.

As well as A-level students, this book is suitable for students studying for nursing and Health Science.

Format:Paperback
I am currently studying The Access to HE Diploma and one of my modules is Biology. I bought this book a short while ago, and I can not put into words how helpful it has been with my studies. It follows a wide variety of topics that is so well written, I haven't once gotten a headache from reading about the information inside. It's complete with images, revision questions and even things that can set your mind away wondering why certain things occur within the human body. It also has exclusive web downloads.

This site was also the least expensive for this book, as other places are charging a lot more for it.

I found this book to be very usefull and great for essays in my AS course of human biology. Its divided into easy to read chapters and is just the right depth and detail for AS/A level.It provides you with a good base for any background reading needed and is easy to understand.overall an excellent book!!!

Don't rely on it.
The book is nicely laid out and has some clear diagrams that I found useful for revision. However, I agree with some previous reviewers who said the text lacks detail for AS/A2. Read more

Easy to understand but not good for anything above AS-level
This book is very easy to understand and therefore good if you are new to the subject, however, I found that it doesn't go into much depth on a lot of topics. Read more
