Driven by learning goals, previous editions of this text have been widely adopted for their accurate, complete, and up-to-date coverage. While maintaining these hallmarks, this revision includes increased coverage of adulthood and aging, a new “Interlude” feature on applications, and updated research with more 21st-century citations than ever before.

The 8th edition of "Zoology" continues to offer students an introductory general zoology text that is manageable in size and adaptable to a variety of course formats. It is a principles - oriented text written for the non-majors or the combined course, presented at the freshman and sophomore level. "Zoology" is organized into three parts. Part One covers the common life processes, including cell and tissue structure and function, the genetic basis of evolution, and the evolutionary and ecological principles that unify all life. Part Two is the survey of protists and animals, emphasizing evolutionary and ecological relationships, aspects of animal organization that unite major animal phyla, and animal adaptations. Part Three covers animal form and function using a comparative approach. This approach includes descriptions and full-color artwork that depict evolutionary changes in the structure and function of selected organ systems.

Environmental Science: The Study of Interrelationships

Learning is much more than reading in a textbook. That's why the tenth edition of this book is integrated closely with an Online Learning Centre where students and professors alike will benefit. The OLC provides animations, virtual labs, online quizzing, Power Point lecture outlines, text images for presentations, and other tools that will help make teaching a little easier and learning a lot more fun. Inquiry into Life covers the whole field of basic biology, and emphasises the application of this knowledge to human concerns. Along with this approach, concepts and principles are stressed, rather than detailed, high-level scientific data and terminology. - New Chapter One: The Study of Life has been updated to strengthen the presentation of the characteristics of life, the organization of the biosphere and the scientific process. - New Conservation of Biodiversity chapter. This new chapter discusses the current biodiversity crisis including why we should care, the root causes, and how to preserve species and prevent extinctions. - Each chapter ends with an e-Learning Connection page, which organises the relevant online study material by major sections, helping to create a stronger association between available study activities and text material.
