This title comes from the incredibly popular Sterling Milestones series. From the emergence of life, to Leewenhoek's microscopic world, to GMO crops, The Biology Book presents 25 landmarks in the most widely studied scientific field. Brief, engaging, and colourfully illustrated synopses introduce readers to every major subdiscipline, including cell theory, genetics, evolution, physiology, thermodynamics, molecular biology and ecology.
