Intended for a one-semester course in human biology or general biology using a human systems model. Goodenough, et al. presents the principles of human biology and applies them to students' lives, helping them realize the benefits of understanding the material. Judy Goodenough has taught human biology for over fifteen years, and with her coauthors has written a text with three basic goals: to provide information that will help students understand their everyday experiences with their bodies and the world around them; to help students understand how their actions affect their quality of life, both in terms of personal health and the welfare of the planet; to help students develop reasoning skills that they can apply to the situations they face in life.
The basic thesis of the work is that environmental problems are only to be solved by people - people who will be required to make value judgements in conflicts that go beyond narrowly conceived human concerns.
With a focus on body systems, this text intends to spark the interest of nonscience students and encourage active learning.
"Throughout the text, you will learn more about the complex interactions that occur within the human body.
This title guides students to think conceptually about biology and the world around them.
The relationship between humans and other living things is emphasised in this text. Students are provided with a firm grasp of how their bodies function and how the human population can become more fully integrated into the biosphere.
In this edition, as in previous editions, each chapter presents the topic clearly, simply, and distinctly so that students will feel capable of achieving an adult level of understanding.
