New Gcse Biology

GCSE Biology AQA Revision Guide (with online edition)

This second edition of GCSE Biology is in line with the requirements of the National Curriculum and the revised GCSE Science: Biology syllabuses. Key features include new chapters on personal health, biotechnology and disease; updated questions; redesigned layout; and increased use of colour.

Biology For You has been updated to offer comprehensive coverage of the revised GCSE specifications. It can be used with either mixed ability or streamed sets and higher tier materials are clearly marked.

The most popular series for GCSE has now been improved and updated to match the new GCSE Science specifications for AQA, Edexcel and OCR. Brand new content and additional sections such as 'How Science Works' and 'Doing Your Coursework', ensure your students have all the support they need to follow the new specifications. However, you can rest assured that all those features that have made this series a favourite with teachers and students for so long have been retained - students' books are still highly accessible with lively and engaging content and are packed with cartoons and rhymes to thoroughly explain ideas.

This outstanding book has been fully revised to feature: - additional information on topics such as clinical trials, B and T lymphocytes, infertility, performance-enhancing hormones, fluoridation of water supplies, impact of hunting and over-fishing, global warming, biofuels and global travel and disease - a new chapter on Applied Genetics, drawing together and expanding the information on selective breeding, genetic engineering, cloning, genetic fingerprinting and the Human Genome Project.
