General Biology is a brilliant new text for high school biology that combines up-to-date science with a Christian worldview and the educational philosophy for which Novare is known. The book starts at the atomic level and progresses to ever larger scales: cells, genes, microorganisms, plants, animals, and human organ systems. The final chapters survey ecology and the theory of evolution.
Like all Novare texts, mastery-based learning methods are an essential part of General Biology, propelling students not only to learn but also to substantially retain the content for years after completing the course. The book
succinctly and logically covers a wide array of information in a modest
number of pages, making it a pleasure to read. Brilliant and beautiful
graphics, which appear on almost every page, draw students into mature
engagement with the content.
