description: The Fifth Edition of Starr and McMillan's best-selling HUMAN BIOLOGY is designed to help students understand human biology by engaging them in learning in every way possible. The book's extensive array of multimedia resources enriches the book's hallmark features: unique visuals on every page, applications in every chapter that show how human biology is inextricably linked to everyday life, and activities and resources throughout the book that encourage critical thinking. Segments on the FREE accompanying interactive CD-ROM, as well as the CNN Today Videos, Web links, and reading from the InfoTrac College Edition library are all integrated with the text to support, illuminate, and reinforce the text. Starr and McMillan's visuals work hand in hand with the authors' clear writing. Each basic concept appears as a one- or two-page Concept Spread. This format helps students focus on information in manageable easy-to-understand segments. Main points are laid out clearly, summarized, and reinforced by visuals. The carefully written transitions between Concept Spreads help students grasp how each concept fits into the whole story of the remarkable human body.
