Biology is a traditional, comprehensive introductory biology textbook with coverage from cell structure and function to the conservation of biodiversity and is appropriate for a one- or two-semester biology course. Biology focuses on three themes: systems, evolution, and the nature of science. These themes are integrated into all aspects of the textbook, from the unit learning outcomes to the theme-based feature readings in the text.

Biology is a traditional, comprehensive introductory biology textbook with coverage from cell structure and function to the conservation of biodiversity and is appropriate for a one- or two-semester biology course. Biology focuses on three themes: systems, evolution, and the nature of science. These themes are integrated into all aspects of the textbook, from the unit learning outcomes to the theme-based feature readings in the text. Recognizing that instructors are increasingly being asked to engage their students while still providing them with a firm foundation in core biological principles, the authors of Biology integrated relevant content throughout the text to better allow students to make connections and think more scientifically.
Sylvia S. Mader has authored several nationally recognized biology texts published by McGraw-Hill. Educated at Bryn Mawr College, Harvard University, Tufts University, and Nova Southeastern University, she holds degrees in both Biology and Education. Over the years she has taught at University of Massachusetts, Lowell; Massachusetts Bay Community College; Suffolk University; and Nathan Mayhew Seminars. Her ability to reach out to science-shy students led to the writing of her first text, Inquiry into Life, which is now in its fifteenth edition. Highly acclaimed for her crisp and entertaining writing style, her books have become models for others who write in the field of biology.
