The revised edition of this bestselling textbook provides latest and detailed account of vital topics in biology, namely, Cell Biology, Genetics, Molecular Biology, Evolution and Ecology . The treatment is very exhaustive as the book devotes exclusive parts to each topic, yet in a simple, lucid and concise manner. Simplified and well labelled diagrams and pictures make the subject interesting and easy to understand. It is developed for students of B.Sc. Pass and Honours courses, primarily. However, it is equally useful for students of M.Sc. Zoology, Botany and Biosciences. Aspirants of medical entrance and civil services examinations would also find the book extremely useful.

Now you can tailor the Seventh Edition of Biology: The Unity and Diversity of Life specifically to the topics you cover in your course. Six paperbacks are available: Cell Biology and Genetics, Evolution of Life, Plant Structure and Function, Animal Structure and Function, and Ecology and Behavior.The Cell Biology and Genetics volume includes characteristics of life, scientific methods, basic chemistry, cell biology, metabolism, mitosis and meiosis, classical genetics, human genetics, molecular genetics, recombinant DNA, and genetic engineering. (In the hardcover version, Units I and II, Chapters 1-16.).
