5 out of 5 stars Good introductory biology text.......2007-08-24

This is a great text for anyone taking an introductory college-level biology course. The writing style is simple and easy to understand, unlike many other science textbooks. Despite being very easy to read, it contains a good amount of information.

5 out of 5 stars Biology: concepts and connections with student cm-rom 5th.......2007-02-11

Excellent service and perfect condition, bought brand new. Will buy again and again...

5 out of 5 stars Above and Beyond Other Textbooks.......2007-01-17

This is a fabulous textbook. The descriptions are clear and there is always a picture following in case you are a visual learner. The greatest thing about this book is that it provides so many ways to study. The book has a website and a CD rom, where you can read the book, do very helpful activities, hear MP3 tutor sessions with the author and more. If you don't understand something, there are so many ways to study it, that it won't take long before you will.

4 out of 5 stars What a Savings!!!.......2006-11-23

When I first purchased this book from my school bookstore, I gulped after looking at their price tag over $130. After returning it and purchansing a used copy from Amazon, I couldn't believe the condition that it was in. It was "like new" just the way my seller claimed it to be.

5 out of 5 stars I feel educated every time I use this book..........2006-03-11

This is a great book!! I'm an English Lit. major and wanted to focus a bit on science and got myself this book. It's so wonderfully written! It explains very clearly and it has a CD-rom with excercises. Even if you're not taking an intro-biology course this book is useful and easy to use for self study. The book is devided into theme chapters and covers about everything you can think of in the natural world. It's no doubt a very good introduction to further study in biology. I feel educated every time I use this book!
I'd give more than 5 stars if that was possible.

        5 out of 5 stars Very good study guide, helped me to learn college biology.......2005-01-09

        This is a good biology study guide for college bio. I studied this book along with my biology textbook, which was a little harder to understand--especially subjects on heredity. Liebaert's Student Study Guide for Biology helped me to comprehend subjects in biology at a fast pace--very good for time management since I have like 5 other classes. For really good test questions, I highly recommend "The Ultimate Study Guide for Biology: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanation" vol 1, vol 2, & Vol 3 by Patrick Leonardi. Another additional reference that I also found helpful was Biology: The Easy Way by Gabrielle Edward.

                                This volume is composed of extensive and detailed notes from the lectures given at the 40th Karpacz Winter School. This school focussed on quantum gravity phenomenology with emphasis on its relation to observational astrophysics and cosmology. These notes have been carefully edited with the aim to give advanced students and young researchers a balanced and accessible introduction to a rather heavily mathematical subject.

                                Djuna Barnes, best known for her 1936 novel Nightwood, was a modernist with a fertile talent, who worked as an illustrator, a reporter, and a feature writer for newspapers and avant-garde magazines in the first half of this century. In their playfulness with words and syntax, the short stories in this volume, written between 1914 and 1942 and collected by her biographer, Phillip Herring, show the influence of James Joyce and Gertrude Stein. Many were written for magazines and end with a plot twist. As one might expect from a visual artist, these stories are full of symbolic images, often hauntingly grotesque.

                                Book Description

                                Beginning in 1914, Djuna Barnes contributed regularly to numerous magazines and newspapers works of fiction, poetry, essay, and drama. Unlike some works in other genres in which she wrote, Barnes held her stories in particularly high regard, revising several of the stories collected in A Book (1923; reprinted as A Night Among the Horses in 1929) late in her life. These stories from Spillway, her other early tales, and other stories never before published are collected in this volume. What they reveal is the breadth and consistency of Barnes's story writing, and should help establish her as one of the most interesting and vital storytellers of the great period of American literary output after World War I.

                                Barnes is recognized internationally for her masterwork Nightwood and for other works of fiction, including Ryder and Ladies Almanack. She also wrote plays, most notably The Antiphon-which will be republished by Sun & Moon Press next year-and shorter works collected in At the Roots of the Stars: The Short Plays. Her early poetic work, The Book of Repulsive Women, has increasingly gainer readers over the past few years. A selection of her drawings, which often accompanied her literary writing, has just been published by Sun & Moon Press as Poe's Mother.

                                5 out of 5 stars a road less traveled.......1999-03-17

                                Djuna Barnes tops the scale for underappreciated writer of this century. She exhibits a masterful command of the language; fresh metaphors startle on every page, in every paragraph. Each story is different; each character stylistically flawless. For your own sake, please read this book!
