New section openers offer context for information, and each chapter now ends with a list of web resources. A glossary is also new. The text begins with introductions to developmental anatomy, genetics, and cell-cell communication in development. Part II introduces cell commitment and early embryonic development, and Part III, on stem cell concepts, covers organogenesis. Part IV covers systems biology and applications in medicine, ecology, and evolution. The art program features color images, photos, and detailed, labeled explanatory illustrations on every page. One of the companion web sites offers articles, movies, interviews, opinion essays, Pub Med links, and a humor page, giving insight on historical, philosophical, and ethical perspectives in developmental biology. The other web site is designed as an online laboratory manual, with 40 interactive videos and 300 labeled photos taking students through the life cycles of model organisms.

Biology is a comprehensive introductory biology textbook for non-majors or mixed-majors courses that covers biology in a traditional order from the structure and function of the cell to the organization of the biosphere. The book, which centers on the evolution and diversity of organisms, is appropriate for a one- or two-semester course.It's no wonder that Sylvia Mader's Biology continues to be a text that's appreciated as much by instructors as it is by the students who use it. The ninth edition is the epitome of Mader's expertise: Its concise, precise writing uses an economy of words to present the material as succinctly and clearly as possible, thereby enabling students a even non-majors a to understand the concepts without necessarily asking the instructor to explain further.
