Human Biology : Personal, Environmental, And Social Concerns

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.
