Preface

Preface to Biology and the Citizen, by Colleen Jones and Elisa Taylor, adapters of Concepts of Biology

In this survey text, directed at those not majoring in biology, we dispel the assumption that a little learning is a dangerous thing. We hope that by skimming the surface of a very deep subject, biology, we may inspire you to drink more deeply and make more informed choices relating to your health, the environment, politics, and the greatest subject that all of us are entwined in, life itself.

In the adapted textbook, Concepts of Biology, you will find the following units:

  • Unit 1: Principles of Cellular Life
  • Unit 2: Principles of Inheritance
  • Unit 3: Principles of Evolution
  • Unit 4: Principles of Ecology

Adaptations to the original textbook Concepts of Biology by OpenStax College include:
