Biology

Biology: A Human Health Perspective is a valuable clinically oriented textbook for those going into the health professions. It offers important medical case histories and complex colour illustrations, interacts with the reader and asks questions throughout. Units cover the basic chemistry of biology and cell origins, and energy and protein processing, before discussing cell reproduction, genetics, and evolution, and their place in public healthcare. Clinical applications and medical terminology are also included across the chapters, and pioneering medical developments such as holographic surgery, robotic neurosurgery and tractography are featured. This textbook, along with supporting ancillary materials such as PowerPoint slides, solution manuals and quiz banks, is a vital resource for all undergraduate students studying biology or for those looking to develop a career in a health profession who need a basic understanding of the field.
