I received the international edition for this book, including access to the Mastering Biology website. It has the same exact content as the American edition and has been excellent. I especially appreciate the web site as it has me very helpful animations and tutorials that really support and explain the content in the book. Thanks
This is one book I didn't want to sell, after completing the Bio course I bought it for. It's very comprehensive, has great original illustrations, and goes into more depth than your average Bio text. The CD is great for studying, with a variety of fun, game-like interactive exercises that reinforce the lessons in each chapter. Each chapter in the book has a summary and review which really prepares you for exams. If you love the life sciences, you'll want to have this book. It is well known among science majors as the one everyone keeps forever.
I bought this textbook because I needed it for my General Biology course here in college. I love reading and learning new things, and I absolutely love this textbook because I love biology. I don't want to rent it, I want to buy it and actually keep it, even after the course has ended. What I like the most about this book is the vast knowledge within its pages. What I dislike, is that it's huge with tiny print. Luckily, there are pictures on almost every page that balances this out. This is a complex piece of work, one in which is unique compared to others.
The book was supposed be in “Acceptable” condition, when in reality it was sold in excellent condition. Great buy

Older editions just as good as the latest one. The best textbook in biology.
