Deletion of Biology Today: An Issues Approach

Comment: per : there exist multiple secondary sources that cover this in nontrivial detail. I don't give a lot of weight to the low citation count on Google scholar: there aren't a lot of biology research paper citations to it because it is an introductory text, not a research monograph. Beyond the expected book reviews (e.g. http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/431042) I found two published articles comparing multiple textbooks and devoting nontrivial coverage to it (http://www.jstor.org/stable/1313266?seq=2, http://www.toriah.org/articles/2009-Blachowicz.pdf; the first of these two also notes its unusual organization by topics of current interest instead of by levels of hierarchy of complexity), and one article on a specialized topic (the social construction of race) which again covers it nontrivially, singling it out as "The most thorough treatment of race in a current biology textbook" http://www.kennesaw.edu/cetl/publications/rtt/RTT17,1.pdf#page=42. I also found multiple college courses using this book as a text https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Biology+Today%3A+An+Issues+Approach%22+syllabus+site:.edu. I think that's evidence enough for notability, and also enough to answer your question about how it is distinctive
