This textbook has been especially written by eminent authors with decades of pedagogical experience. The biology curriculum is designed to meet the needs of today where medicine and engineering are not the only options for the brightest students. In the 21st century there are emerging fields of biotechnology, bioinformatics, genetic engineering and even biomedical engineering.

The book follows the XII current syllabus. The class lays a solid foundation for fascinating issues such as conservation and the population explosion that have recently become global issues. There are also chapters based on the usual functions of botany such as: Mechanisms of life processes, ie. studies of photosynthesis, respiration, growth and reproduction, and the human nervous and reproductive system. Students who complete this course are expected to become conscious citizens, aside from excellence in the careers they later choose. The book is written in plain and clear language and is well illustrated. At the end of each chapter, some questions have been posted to test students’ understanding.
