520			_aWhat is life? Why do bees dance? How do animals know their mothers? Who discovered germs? Biology is the story of our quest to understand the living world and interact - whether microbes, mushrooms, or mammals. Written in plain English, The Biology Book is packed with short, pithy explanations of more than 95 key ideas. Step-by-step flowcharts unpick complex theories, diagrams demystify biological processes, illuminating quotes make the ideas and discoveries memorable, and witty illustrations enhance and play with our understanding of the science.
