How Biology Works: The Facts Visually Explained

Cells, genes, evolution and ecosystems are laid out side by side in How Biology Works, where diagrams carry the explanation and the text stays short. DK covers the ground a general reader needs: the chemistry of living things, DNA and inheritance, how organisms are classified, how populations change over time, how the body defends itself and where biotechnology has taken the field. Each topic is given its own visual treatment, so a reader can follow one idea across a spread without prior study. Technical vocabulary appears where it is needed and is explained on the spot rather than assumed. The essentials: • Life science from molecules through to whole ecosystems • Diagram-led spreads with concise accompanying text • Genetics, immunity, evolution and biotechnology all covered • Works as a first introduction and as a look-up reference later Suited to secondary students, teachers, adult learners returning to science and anyone wanting biology explained visually, published by DK and stocked by Boipoka.
