Humans are, by nature, curious. This book aims to stimulate readers' inherent curiosity toward an appreciation for the intricacy of human life and our place in the ecosphere. With a conversational writing style, applications that will interest students personally, and discussions of critical issues facing society, the authors help students understand their everyday experiences with their bodies and with the world around them. Presents the important concepts of human anatomy, physiology, development, genetics, evolution, and ecology, then applies them in ways readers will find interesting and relevant. Places greater emphasis on the applied and everyday aspects of human health than other books. Includes Special Topic Chapters that expand "pure biology" to cover issues with an interest in personal health, and are more thoroughly developed than they could be in an essay. Includes a visually stunning art program directed by two medical illustrators for accuracy and pedagogical integrity. For anyone interested in learning more about human biology.

This book incorporates ecological and environmental principles while introducing readers to the scientific reasoning and methodology of animal behavior. The authors include classical studies but also incorporate current work to give readers an accessible overview of animal behavior.

Perspectives on Animal Behavior

wiley

Based upon ecological and environmental principles, it introduces students to scientific reasoning and methodology while also addressing development and mechanisms. Includes classical studies that form the foundation of this field but concentrates on more current work in order to present the thinking and experiments which have led to modern understanding of animal behavior.

Based on contemporary ecological principles, this text introduces the student to scientific reasoning and methodology and presents the experiments that have led to our present understanding of animal behaviour. It requires no previous knowledge of the more technical areas.
