 Best textbook ever October 11, 2005
This is by far the most comprehensive book you will ever find if you are after a general Biology textbook. It is clear, concise and interesting to read. I used it mainly for my undergraduate degree and it was invaluable, to a point where it is now referred to as 'the bible'. Buy it. You won't regret it.

I used this book to take AP Biology my sophmore year in high school and i thought that it was one of the best textbooks that I have ever used. Despite its menacing look [just over 1200 pages] the material is clear and easy to understand. The way he presents the information in a personal way along with clearly visible and eye-appealing figures really makes difficult concepts easy to understand. He also did a good job of tying together his key themes. A great book for any bio student, whether in high school or college.

This is the best textbook I've ever seen. I'm not even a biology student and I love it. Although it is fairly basic, it is rigourous enough that several courses may be taught from it alone. I await the rumoured 5th edition with baited breath...
Innovative, exciting and fully explained!!!!! December 31, 1998

Campbell's 4th edition Biology is a book that broadens knowledge of biology with illustrations that helps us understand biology. It also underlines key concepts throughout the book, recommended to anyone.
A very good learning utility for college biology students! December 25, 1998
I am a Pre-Med Biology student and I have had the chance to use this book for my previous semester. It is a wonderful learning utlity and provides detailed information. The Interactive CD-Rom which contains self-quizzes is excellent!
