《Human Biology》第11版This new edition of Human Biology continues our dedication
to providing an accessible, relevant, and appealing introduction
to the study of the human body. Although most
students who use this book will not become scientists, all
can benefit from a better understanding of body structures
and their functions and from the real-world application
of basic biological concepts and principles. Knowing how
cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems work will help
students make informed choices about lifestyle and nutrition,
while having a deeper understanding of common diseases
and disorders will help them navigate issues related
to health care. In addition, some background in ecology
will help them grasp why human activities such as adding
greenhouse gases to the atmosphere put us and other species
at risk. In this way, as they progress through this text,
students will learn both the core concepts of human biology
and how they apply to everyday situations, preparing them
to make well-informed decision in their lives.
