Known for examples and analogies that resonate with readers, this clearly-written book guides students through biology’s complex topics.
For courses in Introductory Biology for non-majors.Every aspect of Biology: A Guide to the Natural World was written and illustrated to guide non-majors through biological concepts and develop their sense of scientific literacy. It has come to be known as a book students enjoy reading. The Third Edition builds upon Krogh's popular strengths–an accessible and engaging writing style, an original illustration program, and a complete instructor and student resource package.
Encourages students to think like scientists and "do" science wherever possible; helps students develop sound thinking and reasoning skills that can be applied to any subject.
Helps students understand the complexities of the immune system more clearly.
Links biological concepts to real-world issues and encourages students to think critically about those connections.
More applied coverage makes it clearer and more relevant to the lives of students.
Helps students understand the complexities of the immune system more clearly.
Gives students greater depth in a few areas rather than a shallow understanding of a broad spectrum of topics.

David Krogh has been writing about science for 20 years in newspapers, magazines, books, and for educational institutions. He is the author of Smoking: The Artificial Passion, an account of the pharmacological and cultural motivations behind the use of tobacco, which was nominated for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in Science and Technology. David has written on physics and on technology issues, but his primary interest has been in biology. He has written on the possible effect methane may be having on global warming; on early research into the role that growth factors may play in neural regeneration following injury; on the synthesis of naturally occurring neurotoxins and their possible use in heart disease; on the use of imported drugs to treat cancer; and on the relationship between alcohol and mood states in women. He has a particular interest in the history of biology and in the relationship between biological research and modern American culture. He holds bachelor's degrees in both journalism and history from the University of Missouri.
