Negative Positive
Title: Good science book
Review: This book was recommended to me by several AP Biology teachers as a good background to help prepare students for the AP Biology test and college. It's NOT a test-prep book. Instead, it delves into the mitochondria and the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. This is a key concept in biology, and this book uses lots of current research to explain evolutionary probabilities. It is a dense read - lots of complex big science words, however not as bad as a textbook. Perhaps not the best-seller for the mainstream folk. I do think you'll need an interest in biology or evolutionary histry to make it through the book. If you are interested in biology, then I greatly recommend this book because it helped provide me with a deeper understanding of the cell's evolutionary history, cell respiration (and photosynthesis, by default), cell signalling, and how the cell works together in the body (including some very colonial ideas, like apoptosis and dying for the good of the whole).
Is the review positive or negative?
