The Biology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained

Cells, genes, ecosystems and evolution are unpacked here with graphics doing as much explaining as the sentences. The Biology Book sits in the Big Ideas Simply Explained series, built for readers who want the whole field mapped rather than a single corner of it. More than ninety-five ideas and events central to biology and the life sciences are laid out in order, from foundational discoveries through to modern biotechnology. Charts, timelines and diagrams carry the technical weight, while the text stays plain enough for a beginner and structured enough for someone revisiting material learned years ago. Ecology, zoology, genetics and microbiology all get their own space. This edition covers: • Over ninety-five milestone ideas across the life sciences, arranged to show how each led to the next • Striking full-colour graphics, charts and timelines built to carry difficult concepts • DNA, genetic inheritance and the mechanics of how living things function • Clear entry points for students, teachers and general readers alike A good fit for secondary and college students, science teachers and general readers who want biology mapped end to end.
