Coleen Belk and Virginia Borden Maier have helped students demystify biology for nearly twenty years in the classroom and nearly ten years with their book, Biology: Science for Life with Physiology. In the new Fourth Edition, they continue to use stories and current issues, such as discussion of cancer to teach cell division, to connect biology to student's lives. Learning Outcomes are new to this edition and integrated within the book to help professors guide students' reading and to help students assess their understanding of biology.

A new Chapter 3, "Is It Possible to Supplement Your Way to Better Health? Nutrients and Membrane Transport," offers an engaging storyline and focused coverage on micro- and macro-nutrients, antioxidants, passive and active transport, and exocytosis and endocytosis.

MyLab and Mastering from Pearson improve results for students and educators. Used by over ten million students, they effectively engage learners at every stage.

With proven success, MasteringBiology has helped students make strides in learning for over 10 years. "The coursework component mark increased from last year by nearly 10%, which resulted in the mean total module mark for this year increasing by 2.3%." - Louise Beard, University of Essex, UK.

With MasteringBiology, students have access to engaging and immersive content and universities gain a partner deeply committed to helping students and educators achieve their goals.
