| Description: | A fresh approach to biology centred on a clear narrative, active learning, and confidence with quantitative concepts and scientific enquiry. Designed for flexible learning, it will give you a deeper understanding of the key concepts, and an appreciation of biology as a dynamic experimental science. Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life, Biomedical Edition responds to the key needs of lecturers and their students by placing a clear central narrative, carefully-structured active learning, and confidence with quantitative concepts and scientific enquiry central to its approach. With coverage tailored to the needs of biomedical, medical, and neuroscience students, and with an approach that fully supports flexible, self-paced learning, it will set you on a path towards a deeper understanding of the key concepts in biology, and a greater appreciation of biology as a dynamic experimental science. Written by a team of dedicated and passionate academics, and shaped by feedback from over 55 institutions, its straightforward narrative, reinforced by key concept overview videos for every chapter, communicate key ideas clearly: the right information is provided at the right time, and at the right depth. Its pause and think features, self-check quizzes, and graded end of chapter questions, augmented by flashcards of key terms, directly support active learning. The combination of narrative text and learning features promote a rich, active learning experience: read, watch, and do.Its combination of Quantitative Toolkits, Scientific Process panels, and the Life and its Exploration chapters provide more insight and support than any other general biology text; they prepare students to engage with this quantitative and experimental discipline with confidence, and set them on a path for success throughout their future studies. Digital formats and resourcesBiological Science: Exploring the Science of Life, Biomedial Edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats.The enhanced e-book is enriched with features that offer extra learning support: www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks - Key concepts videos support students from the start of every chapter and as they make their way through every Module. - Self-check questions at the end of each chapter section give students quick and formative feedback, building their confidence and comprehension as they study and revise. - Quantitative skills video screencasts help students to master the foundational skills required by this discipline.- Interactive figures give students the control they need to step through, and gain mastery over, key concepts.- Per-chapter flashcard glossaries help students to recall the key terms and concepts on which further study can be built. |
