SummaryTable of Contents
"Biology is an authoritative majors textbook with evolution as a unifying theme. It is distinguished from other texts by its strong emphasis on natural selection and the evolutionary process that explains biodiversity. In revising the text, McGraw-Hill has consulted extensively with previous users, noted experts and professors in the field. In response to their feedback, the book was thoroughly updated to reflect rapid scientific advances, and the presentation was significantly modified to address the modern emphasis on teaching concepts

Technology also plays a greater role in this edition as evidenced by the many resources available to instructors and students.
