John P. Harley Reihenfolge der Bücher

The new 7th edition of Zoology continues to offer students an introductory general zoology text that is manageable in size and adaptable to a variety of course formats. It is a principles-oriented text written for the non-majors or the combined course, presented at the freshman and sophomore level. Zoology is organized into three parts. Part One covers the common life processes, including cell and tissue structure and function, the genetic basis of evolution, and the evolutionary and ecological principles that unify all life. Part Two is the survey of protists and animals, emphasizing evolutionary and ecological relationships, aspects of animal organization that unite major animal phyla, and animal adaptations. Part Three covers animal form and function using a comparative approach. This approach includes descriptions and full-color artwork that depict evolutionary changes in the structure and function of selected organ systems.

Prescott, Harley and Klein's 6th edition provides a balanced, comprehensive introduction to all major areas of microbiology. Because of this balance, "Microbiology, 6/e" is appropriate for students preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry, nursing, and allied health, as well as research, teaching, and industry. Biology and chemistry are prerequisites. .

This principles-oriented introduction to zoology aims to provide clear explanations and carefully developed pedagogical aids in order to reinforce key concepts and maintain student interest. The third edition has been updated and revised, and includes new cladograms.

For this new edition, the illustration programme has been revised to organize related art, photos and tables are now in a condensed format, and each part opens with a case study that aims to stimulate critical thinking and introduce students to the concepts present in that part.
