Campbell Essential Biology With Physiology 6th Edition

Campbell Essential Biology with Physiology, Sixth Edition by Eric J. Simon, Jean L. Dickey, and Jane B. Reece — Published by Pearson

Campbell Essential Biology with Physiology makes biology relevant and meaningful. The authors' approach equips students to become more informed citizens, relate concepts from class to their everyday lives, and understand and apply real data to their world and future.

The Sixth Edition incorporates Process of Science essays that use striking infographic figures to convey real data that will help students see and better understand how science actually works. Author-narrated Figure Walkthrough Videos in each chapter guide students through key biology concepts and processes. Topics also include engaging "Why It Matters" essays, "Why Biology Matters" photo essays, and a broad range of interactive, assignable activities that bring core biological concepts to life.

Spanning 29 chapters that move from the chemistry of life and cell biology through genetics, evolution, ecology, and comprehensive physiology coverage, this text is ideally suited for non-majors and mixed biology courses that include a physiology component.

Eric J. Simon is a professor in the Department of Biology and Health Science at New England College, where he teaches introductory biology to science majors and non-science majors, as well as upper-level courses in tropical marine biology and careers in science. He received a B.A. in biology and computer science and an M.A. in biology from Wesleyan University, and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Harvard University. Jean L. Dickey is Professor Emerita of Biological Sciences at Clemson University. Jane B. Reece was Neil Campbell's longtime collaborator and a founding author of both Campbell Essential Biology and Campbell Essential Biology with Physiology — a legacy this Sixth Edition continues with distinction.
