Libro digital para leer en línea o en app móvil

Descripción:
Dr. Sylvia Mader’s text, Inquiry into Life, was originally developed to reach out to science-shy students. The text now represents
one of the cornerstones of introductory biology education. Inquiry into Life was founded on the belief that teaching science from
a human perspective, coupled with human applications, would make the material more relevant to the student. Interestingly, even
though it has been over 40 years since the first edition was published, this style of relevancy-based education remains the focus
of the national efforts to increase scientific literacy in the general public.
