From the Origin of Life to Epigenetics, 250 Milestones in the History of Biology

This title comes from the incredibly popular Sterling Milestones series. From the emergence of life, to Leewenhoek's microscopic world, to GMO crops,

The Biology Book presents 250 landmarks in the most widely studied scientific field. Brief, engaging, and colourfully illustrated synopses introduce readers to every major subdiscipline, including cell theory, genetics, evolution, physiology, thermodynamics, molecular biology and ecology.

With information on such varied topics as paleontology, pheromones, nature vs nurture, DNA fingerprinting, bioenergetics, and so much more, this lively collection will engage everyone who studies and appreciates the life sciences.
