This text has invited more than 4 million students into the study of this dynamic and essential discipline.The authors have restructured each chapter around a conceptual framework of five or six big ideas.
An Overview draws students in and sets the stage for the rest of the chapter, each numbered Concept Head announces the beginning of a new concept, and Concept Check questions at the end of each chapter encourage students to assess their mastery of a given concept. New Inquiry Figures focus students on the experimental process, and new Research Method Figures illustrate important techniques in biology. Each chapter ends with a Scientific Inquiry Question that asks students to apply scientific investigation skills to the content of the chapter. The nervous system is the part of an animal's body that coordinates its voluntary and involuntary actions and transmits signals to and from different The nervous system is the part of an animal's body that coordinates its voluntary and involuntary actions and transmits signals to and from different parts of its body. In vertebrate species it consists of two main parts, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS contains the brain and spinal cord.
The PNS consists mainly of nerves, which are enclosed bundles of the long fibers or axons, that connect the CNS to every other part of the body. This is the book that got me to the semifinals of the USA Biology Olympiad. That I did not progress further is user error; the authors of this superb text certainly held up their part of the bargain.As a textbook, it gets 5 stars.
This isn't just a biology textbook, it's the biology textbook - I can see how it has achieved its reputation. It can double as exercise equipment, is part encyclopedia, and is over 1300 pages, but it still manages to feel concise and approachable.

The authors/editors were also somehow able to achieve a remarkable consistency of style - it feels like a single person wrote the entirety of this massive tome. The style itself is lucid, engaging, and, most of all, intelligent; the authors clearly care about linguistic precision, something which many scientific types seem to neglect.
Exploring Life
(See MIT's freshman composition course.) In fairness, I have noticed that biologists' writing skills seem to be generally superior to those of scientists of other disciplines. Anectodal evidence may be statistically insignificant, but I know what I've observed.I'm giving it 4 stars because I reserve my 5-star ratings for undisputed, canonical classics of world science and literature.
Biology is not such a book, but neither could it be. A splendidly written, encyclopedic, definitive, and even enjoyable introductory textbook which gave me an outstanding education in the essentials of the life sciences. I will return to it often. 'Biology is the scientific expression of our desire to know nature. We are most likely to protect what we appreciate, and we are most likely to appreciate what we understand.'
It took me more than a year of (almost) daily reading to finish Campbell Biology. It was time well spent. I might not recommend anyone else to try a similar feat, but reading Campbell Biology from cover to cover definitely increased my understanding and appreciation of nature and science.Some parts (such as the chemical 'Biology is the scientific expression of our desire to know nature.

It was time well spent. I might not recommend anyone else to try a similar feat, but reading Campbell Biology from cover to cover definitely increased my understanding and appreciation of nature and science.Some parts (such as the chemical formulas) might not interest non-students such as myself, but the book is full of interesting details and explanations of the world around (and within) us.
Science is full of beauty and discovering how our world works can be a surprisingly emotional experience.After 12+ months of reading, I only have one question: what am I going to do now with all this free time? I wasn't going to review Biology by Neil A. Campbell, because well.1. It's ubiquitous.2. I studied from the sixth edition in high school for Biology AP and the eighth edition for first-year Biology, and while I read it, there were definitely places I didn't because I didn't have to or didn't want to or I fell asleep or I briefly wanted a social life.3. Where the hell do I get off thinking I am expert enough to review a first-year textbook about biology?But then, I remembered:1. Until those I wasn't going to review Biology by Neil A.

Where the hell do I get off thinking I am expert enough to review a first-year textbook about biology?But then, I remembered:1. Until those free-source online textbooks gain user-friendliness and traction against the capitalist beast that is the textbook system, it will remain ubiquitous. (And boy, is that rant about the abuses of the textbook business long, off-topic, and totally for another day.)2.
That means I spent two years with it, and if nothing else learned via idea diffusion while my head rested on its glossy pages because I got an A- grade average. (Idea diffusion is college student urban myth that is going to be proven any year now, just you wait and see.)3.
What else is education for than to teach you that you know nothing?In short, I like it, actually. Even if the prose gets unwieldy at times, and the layout gets overwhelming. There's always a beautiful picture of a tentacly nautilus I can doodle into my notes or an interview with scientist who gets grants to give IQ tests to ants or something on the next page.Can't hurt to get in that mythical volumes edition though; your back will probably thank me.Also my prickly second-quarter Biology professor had a signed edition with him always. That level of respect has got to mean something. Rating: 4.5 stars.
It reads almost as easily as a novel. It's a page turner. It leaves you feeling blown away by all the details that we as mankind have learned about nature.
The order of how the concepts and facts are introduced are part of what makes this book great. You read about how we have come to understood it and you get a glimpse of what is yet to be discovered. It makes you appreciate and get a feel for the complexity of life. It is written in such a way that anyone with a good proficiency in English can It reads almost as easily as a novel.

My instructor always reminded me this is a key book but I just thought this book doesn't cover the subjects that Olympics require many more details. However I followed her advice or maybe I just enjoyed the book. This book provides you critical thinking skills about global health issues such as the problem of flu pandemics, Thalidomide drugs, legal issues, social affects etc.

It's not also only biology, it is about EVERYTHING. If we get a very well understanding about cell structure, we may be inspired to build architectural out resistant systems. If we know about the energy mechanism in human body, in animals, plants or in nature, we may be able to create sustainable energy resources. Disciplines also need to be more connected since world is being more connected. It doesn't matter what your major is, this book helps you to understand things better and develop your problem solving skills. Campbell's Biology is an EXTREMELY incredible book.Even if you know NOTHING about biology, but you are interested in biology the book will make it possible for you to master all the concepts to create a firm basis.If you are already a student of biology it will help you crystallize what you already know, it will help you give your knowledge a good structure and refresher course.Everything is explained extremely well. The questions at the end of chapters help you test your mastery of the topics.

The illustrations are very informative and awesome.Can't recommend this book enough. A must have for every biologist and layman alike. I'm not one to review textbooks used for school on Goodreads, but this one is good enough for me to make an exception.Though I didn't read the entire textbook, I did have to read about 75% of it for my college courses in General Biology I & II. I thoroughly enjoyed using this textbook for my Biology classes as well as for personal study and reference. Each section is clear, concise, and, above all else, interesting; I was never bored while sifting through its hundreds of pages.

I thoroughly enjoyed using this textbook for my Biology classes as well as for personal study and reference. Each section is clear, concise, and, above all else, interesting; I was never bored while sifting through its hundreds of pages. I learned a lot from this textbook (as well as from my excellent Biology professor!) and was able to take stellar notes from it. As well, the illustrations, photographs, charts, and other accompanying graphics greatly enhanced the text and provided a means through which visual learners can thrive in lieu of hours of reading.Were it not for this exceptionally well researched, brilliantly written textbook, I would have struggled to pass my Biology classes.
Thankfully, I was able to pass with flying colors because of this textbook. If you're lucky enough to have a professor that utilizes this particular textbook in their class, you will not be disappointed. The definitive study material for all high school biology competitions. The textbook is written in a slightly informal tone that keeps the book readable. Diagrams are strategically dispersed throughout the chapters to supplement and clarify text.Having read both the 7th and 9th editions, I found that the 9th edition was well edited to contain more up-to-date information but there was some crucial information left out that was in the 7th edition. In particular the 9th edition omits a chart of The definitive study material for all high school biology competitions.

If you are reading the 9th edition to prepare for USABO be sure to be aware of what was omitted. OK, so I haven't read the entire 1350+ pages. I've ONLY read the 400 related to the course I'm teaching (the first three units), but this is a very well -written text, they explain rather complex biological processes in a simple and logical progression and manner. Out of the opening 22 chapters my only issue is that they don't consider prokaryotes to have a cytoskeleton. But, on the plus side they treat prokaryotes very well in other sections, such as transcription/translation, making accurate OK, so I haven't read the entire 1350+ pages.

I was particularly impressed with how succinct and comprehensible the metabolism chapters are. Figures are among the best I've seen in a text - though I haven't seen many General Bio texts in many years to be honest.
I bought this book my first year of college, paid over $200 for it, but it's the only textbook I wouldn't consider selling. It's definitely worth every penny.
Now as a senior in collegeI use it every now and then as a refresher or to double check anything I'm having second-thoughts on. It's a great book, very useful illustrations, and extremely clear.

Campbell Received his PhD in plant biology at UCR, which is where I'm getting my bachelor's in entomology, and it's nice to see his pictures and achievements in the halls of the laboratory building in remembrance of his life, and contributions to this textbook. 5 stars all the way.

This book has it all.With its extremely simple, yet meticulous explanations, it equips you with an in-depth understanding of the subject.The paragraphs and sentences flow in an understandable and very logical manner.I usually struggle with science books because when they talk about complex concepts many questions arise in my head. This book is the only book that created lots of questions in my head and replied them right in the next sentence or next paragraph. Thus, it saved me a ton of energy and time from going through the internet or other books to find the answers.I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have a deep understanding of any part of biology and wants to have all the knowledge in one place especially first-year university students.
I make a point of not adding my textbooks to goodreads but I will make an exception for this one, because this is the one book that would appear anywhere I go. I've read this book in three languages already, and have seen it in a fourth. It's like a corporeal ghost that I can't shake off. If there's a higher power up there controlling who does what in the sciences, I'm sure they're laughing their ass off and probably plotting the way to make sure this book follows me to my grave.Jokes aside, I make a point of not adding my textbooks to goodreads but I will make an exception for this one, because this is the one book that would appear anywhere I go.

If you are studying biology it makes for a great companion listen. I really like the structure. It is well developed with lots of interesting content and anecdotal historical information on biological discoveries. I do not enjoy the weird music before each chapter or the clapping, but narrator is great. I am marking it as finished because it has become my background book and i have probably listened to it 10 times. I wish it had an equivalent for the body systems - cardio, respiratory etc in if you are studying biology it makes for a great companion listen.
