University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

Life was the first Biology textbook that I read in English back when I was a college student in Beijing, China. This comprehensive introductory textbook covers a broad range of topics including physiology, genetics, ecology, evolution etc. The language is easy to understand, the illustrations are elegant. It is not only a great textbook for Biology majors, but also a nice reading for those non-majors who are simply curious about what’s going on in our body and the world around us.
