"For the past quarter century, Campbell BIOLOGY has been the leading textbook in the biological sciences, has been translated into more than a dozen languages, and has provided millions of students with a solid foundation in biology. This success is a testament not only to Neil Campbell's original vision, but also to the dedication of reviewers, who, together with authors and artists, shaped and inspired this work. Science and pedagogy are not static, but as they evolve so does Campbell BIOLOGY. The Canadian edition represents a new milestone in the evolution of this text. As Campbell BIOLOGY, the Canadian edition maintains and promotes the goals of Neil Campbell and prior editions-helping students make connections visually across the topics of biology; providing students with a solid foundation in scientific thinking and quantitative reasoning skills; and inspiring students with the excitement and relevance of modern biology, particularly in the realm of genomics."-- Provided by publisher.
