Principles of Life + Bioportal David M Hillis Books
This is a disciplined text and covers bio with a passion. The book is easy enough to read that it could serve anyone wishing to expand their understanding of living systems. But . . . . it is waaaay too much for a single course at the high school AP Bio level course unless you are passionate about the subject. Each chapter takes two weeks to fully absorb, considering the labs that should go with it. Instructors may not take the time to fully cover each chapter, and will end up skimming. Think I am wrong? Count the chapters, check the calendar, tell me how to do it. My kid is first in his class and this text is kicking his bottom as a senior and I think that is why it got 4 stars. I recommend it for summer reading for bio students, but too much here for high school.Product details

Principles of Life + Bioportal David M Hillis Books Reviews
When it came in, it was missing the entire last chapter and everything after that. Wish I could sell it, but no one is buying because it's incomplete.
An ok read during my BIO class. Never really used it.
I purchased an expensive copy of this book thinking that it would include the Bioportal access code ($75 to purchase online without the text)....nope! The new, $100 book did not contain Bioportal and when I contacted the publisher they said not all the books include the access code (so why are they so expensive please??). It would be really great if the sellers would list if it comes included with the book, hint hint. In any case, just be careful of your purchase. and the book publishing company were extremely nice and helpful and I sorted it out, but still a hassle when classes are starting.
The book was nasty. I wish I could give less than one stars. It has nasty tape on the side and it has water damage on the bottom. I haven't touched it since I first got it, it's that disgusting
good for college student, cheaper than book store
Just the book required for my BIO 120 class. Came in under a week and was clean and shrink wrapped. Just one corner was bent, otherwise the binding, cover and pages were all fine. It has a printing oil like odor which hasn't gone away after 2 months. Note, it doesn't come with any online access, etc. and access probably isn't necessary for a Biology course.
I bought this book because it is advertised to come with Launchpad. I received the book in the mail but no code for Launchpad. Save your money and time and just rent the textbook and buy the code separate from the publisher, or get the actual bundle from a different site.
