Plant Biology focuses students on the function of plants and the role they play in our world. With evolved content and a new organisation, the authors emphasise the scientific method to help students develop the critical thinking skills they need to make sound decisions throughout life. Together, the emphasis on how plants work and the development of critical-thinking skills support the authors’ goal of fostering scientific literacy.
