Through his teaching, his textbook, and in his online blog, award-winning teacher Michael D. Johnson sparks the interest of today's science-intimidated student by connecting basic biology to real-world issues relevant to students' own lives. Through a storytelling approach and extensive online support, Human Biology: Concepts and Current Issues, Seventh Edition not only demystifies how the human body works but drives students to become better consumers of health and science information. Each chapter opens with Johnson's popular "Current Issues" essays, and BlogInFocus references within the chapter direct students to his frequently-updated online blog for breaking human biology-related news.



The Seventh Edition offers stronger student self-assessment tools with new and expanded critical thinking questions throughout each chapter and in the end-of-chapter reviews.
