Exploring Biology in the Laboratory: Core Concepts is a comprehensive manual appropriate for introductory biology lab courses. This edition is designed for courses populated by nonmajors or for majors courses where abbreviated coverage is desired. Based on the two-semester version of Exploring Biology in the Laboratory, 3e, this Core Concepts edition features a streamlined set of clearly written activities with abbreviated coverage of the biodiversity of life. These exercises emphasize the unity of all living things and the evolutionary forces that have resulted in, and continue to act on, the diversity that we see around us today.
This full-color photographic atlas provides clear photographs and drawings of tissues and organisms similar to specimens seen in a zoology laboratory. It is designed to accompany any zoology text or laboratory manual and delivers a balanced visual representation of the major groups of zoological organisms.
A Photographic Atlas for the Botany Laboratory provides photographs and drawings of tissues and organisms similar to specimens seen in a botany laboratory. It is designed to accompany any botany (or biology) text or laboratory manual used in the classroom.
Discovering Anatomy: A Guided Examination of the Cadaver is designed for anatomy courses that are fortunate enough to have cadavers available; however, it may also be used in courses that utilize other means, such as models, to achieve an understanding of anatomical structures. The majority of this workbook is composed of full-page color photographs of carefully dissected cadavers, black-and-white line art to color and label, and other activities to guide students through the structures and layers of the human body.
This full-color atlas provides students with a balanced visual representation of the diversity of biological organisms. It is designed to accompany any biology textbook or laboratory manual.
Enhancement Exercises for Biology can augment any college-level biology course. The active learning modules featured in the Enhancement Exercises provide the best opportunity for students to learn and experience biology. The modules challenge students by providing activities ranging from simple, guided inquiry to more thoughtful, open-ended, research-based activities. Assign all or a portion of an individual exercise as applicable to your specific course. This book has been designed so the student can complete the assignments without any need for specialized lab equipment. The exercises can be completed by visiting local outdoor environments or by using common items easily obtained at home or the grocery store.
A Photographic Atlas for the Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory, 9e is designed as a visual reference to accompany any human anatomy or integrated human anatomy and physiology course. The Atlas can be used to guide students through their microscope work during their vertebrate dissections, and as a reference while they study anatomical models in the laboratory. The Atlas is the perfect complement to any laboratory manual and can provide additional references for use in lab or as study tool outside of the laboratory.
In 1832 Joseph Smith, Jr., the Mormons’ first prophet, foretold of a great war beginning in South Carolina. In the combatants’ mutual destruction, God’s purposes would be served, and Mormon men would rise to form a geographical, political, and theocratic “Kingdom of God” to encompass the earth. Three decades later, when Smith’s prophecy failed with the end of the American Civil War, the United States left torn but intact, the Mormons’ perspective on the conflict—and their inactivity in it—required palliative revision. In The Civil War Years in Utah, the first full account of the events that occurred in Utah Territory during the Civil War, John Gary Maxwell contradicts the patriotic mythology of Mormon leaders’ version of this dark chapter in Utah history. While the Civil War spread death, tragedy, and sorrow across the continent, Utah Territory remained virtually untouched. Although the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—and its faithful—proudly praise the service of an 1862 Mormon cavalry company during the Civil War, Maxwell’s research exposes the relatively inconsequential contribution of these Nauvoo Legion soldiers. Active for a mere ninety days, they patrolled overland trails and telegraph lines. Furthermore, Maxwell finds indisputable evidence of Southern allegiance among Mormon leaders, despite their claim of staunch, long-standing loyalty to the Union. Men at the highest levels of Mormon hierarchy were in close personal contact with Confederate operatives. In seeking sovereignty, Maxwell contends, the Saints engaged in blatant and treasonous conflict with Union authorities, the California and Nevada Volunteers, and federal policies, repeatedly skirting open warfare with the U.S. government. Collective memory of this consequential period in American history, Maxwell argues, has been ill-served by a one-sided perspective. This engaging and long-overdue reappraisal finally fills in the gaps, telling the full story of the Civil War years in Utah Territory.
The House Next Door tells the story of a dysfunctional family seprated by more than thirty years, dealing with a dark secret that threatens national security. Scott Keen, a reporter, details the action in this love lost, love found again thriller. This is the first of the Scott Keen trilogy.
Scott Keen returns in the third book of the trilogy. This time, Scott faces the Shield from within the organization. He uncovers their plots and also discovers how a terrorist organization uses the media to its own ends. Scott and his magazine must make major decisions about what to publish and what to withhold from the public for national security. It is all set in a race against time.
A couple of highly-wired executives, decide to take off from their rat-race existence and live in the wilderness for a year. What they encountered would make Jack London gasp
Scott Keen is back in the second of his trilogy, John Crawley's fifth novel, Under The Radar. The globe-trotting reporter has settled down in his mother's home in a small East Texas town, stuck on the side of US 80. Little does he know that the death of a good friend and the return of another friend, an old college buddy, Marshall Tynus, spell trouble for him.Wrapped up in the social unrest which followed the Catholic Bishop's meeting in Dallas on child molestation and a drug cartel trying to find a safe haven to fly in and out of the country, Under The Radar fuses elements of good and evil against elements of power and money. Right and wrong switch sides many times in this cliff hanger. Friends and enemies you met in The House Next Door will reappear, some you thought were dead are still alive, others you thought were evil are trying to redeem themselves with acts of goodness.
This full-color, comprehensive, affordable introductory biology manual is appropriate for both majors and nonmajors laboratory courses. All general biology topics are covered extensively, and the manual is designed to be used with a minimum of outside reference material. The activities emphasize the unity of all living things and the evolutionary forces that have resulted in, and continue to act on, the diversity that we see around us today.
