Special features of Primers
Primers in Biology combine the most desirable features
of a textbook and a reference book in a series of short synthetic
texts for print and web that will offer working scientists and students
a simple and efficient way to learn about the most topical fields in
biology. Samples from each primer
are free to view.
One two-page module per topic...
To enable more knowledgeable readers to choose their
own route through the books, or to use them easily as a quick reference resource on a defined
topic, each chapter in a Primer is broken down into topics each with all the relevant text,
illustrations and references side by side on two consecutive pages.
Clear conceptual structure...
To help orientate novices each chapter begins with a two-page overview that sets the material that follows in a
broader context, and to make it easy to follow, the entire text is organized as a series of short sections under
single-sentence headings that reflect the logical structure of the text.
Glossary of technical terms...
Key terms are defined within each topic and collected in a
glossary in each book.
