Inviting and Informative Book
I love, love , love this book. I want a whole class set for high school 9th graders. Also great for adults . The presentation of concepts is inviting. It helps people who are intimidated by science but want to learn and understand.

So helpful
It’s really helping supplement a subpar biology teacher. We love this series of books in our home. Everything is explained in a digestible manner.

Not Your Mother’s Text Book
This book has been an asset to my eighth grade granddaughter. It’s not your everyday run of the mill text book. Lots of color and eye catching titles. Easy to use and informative. And it’s not boring! I would recommend it for middle school kids.

A++, a must read
Like the other books in the series, at least the ones I’ve purchased, this is a superb learning tool. This was actually my major in college so I’m more qualified this time to write a review.I think this book covers everything that you need to know in high school biology, generally with the right amount of detail. It covers the body systems well with a chapter devoted to each one. It’s pretty good in evolution and reasonable in ecology. I know that publishers put limits on page numbers and so I think that this and the chemistry book waste a couple of chapters in the beginning on more abstract ideas that you really need to learn on the job and not from books. I mean things like broad scientific terminology and lab techniques. I feel this is precious room wasted. For instance the section on genetics is okay but genetics is a really hot topic and the basic concepts should be covered in some detail. As an example, the author only talks about part of the protein synthesis process (transcription) but, except for a quick blurb, he does not mention the rest of the process (translation and the famous picture of the genetic code). Two of the Covid vaccines are pieces of mRNA and the vaccines in these 2 cases are based on the principle of protein synthesis. In fact, as best as I can tell, the process of amino acids joining to become proteins is not explained anywhere, even in the organic molecule section. There, he uses a chart to explain the 4 major organic macromolecules. That’s near the beginning of the book and is an important building concept. that requires a somewhat detailed explanation and a few pictures of the structure of the macromolecules. He got back to nucleic acids later on but he did not really get back to the other 3. He might have included a chapter on nutrition and vitamins where some of this stuff could be explained further. Of course, nowadays you can read with your phone next to you and Google any curiosity that you want to so none of these omissions are very crucial. I know you can’t include everything so I might be nitpicking a bit. His discussion of atomic structure, the importance of water, and enzymes is very good. The chapters on cellular respiration and photosynthesis are superb and they are difficult subjects. The animal phyla section is super; I think it’s a focus of any high school biology course.Overall, this is a really, really good and informative book. This is a book that should be on anyone’s shelf, even adults that are really educated in this subject. It’s a great read and it’s a beautiful book. I highly recommend it.

Good quality and very helpful
Bought this to help me pass college biology. I was able to read this book while studying my course book and it helped me pass the class. Would buy it again, good quality and value for the money paid.

Love this series and got them on kindle as well for travel
8th Grade Homeschool Review:As a parent and homeschool educator, I’ve been using a set of books for 8th-grade homeschooling, and I’d like to share my thoughts. These books have proven to be a valuable resource in our homeschool journey. They provide a solid foundation for various subjects, covering a wide range of topics essential for 8th-grade students.What I appreciate most about these books is their comprehensive approach. They offer a well-structured curriculum that allows students to delve into subjects such as mathematics, science, literature, and history. The content is clear, and the exercises and activities help reinforce the learning process.However, it’s worth noting that while these books are fantastic as guides, they might not provide all the answers. As with any educational materials, there may be moments when students need additional support or clarification. In such cases, we’ve found supplemental videos and other educational resources to be incredibly helpful. The combination of these books and supplementary materials has been the key to a well-rounded education.Subnote:This review is intended to serve as a general overview for all the books I’m currently using for 8th-grade homeschooling. If any of the books stand out, either for their exceptional quality or shortcomings, I will provide a more detailed review for that specific book. It’s all about ensuring that our homeschooling experience is as enriching as possible.

この参考書は、「完璧な高校生物スタディガイド—優評価をもらうためのすべて！まるで、クラスのトップの子のノートをカリスマ教師がチェック・補充したような分厚いノート」だとか！特に面白いのは、分類学で、「えー、ほんと？」、「まさか？」、「今はそうなっているのか？」、「半世紀前とは全然違うんだ！」など、驚きの連続です。また、細胞生物学・遺伝学・分子生物学は、最新の知見を取り入れて、大変実用的です。さらに、英文は、平易で自然な口語で、素晴らしい！専門用語以外は、辞書なしでスラスラ読めます。 高校の時、生物が嫌いでしたが、こんな教科書・参考書があったら、好きになっていたかも！全編一気に読み通しました。ありがたいことに、この安さにもかかわらず、扱いやすい立派な装丁のハードカバーなのです！

Este livro brilha ao transformar a intimidante grade curricular de biologia em anotações coloridas, digeríveis e visualmente estimulantes. Simulando o caderno do “aluno mais inteligente da sala”, ele utiliza mnemônicos, diagramas divertidos e linguagem direta para explicar desde a teoria celular até ecossistemas complexos. É o recurso de apoio ideal para estudantes visuais (especialmente do ensino fundamental II e início do médio) ou para quem precisa de uma revisão rápida e descomplicada dos fundamentos da vida, tornando o estudo menos árduo e mais intuitivo.
