Jay Withgott Book order

This third edition continues to build chapters around important US and globally recognised cases to present the content of the chapter and make science memorable. A focus on data and critical thinking is improved, with the addition of hands-on activities featured in each chapter.

[The goal of this book is to] engage [students] in the scientific process of testing and discovery. To do this, [the authors] have include an extended discussion of the scientific method and the social context of science in the opening chapter, and ... real-life studies throughout the main text. [The authors also] show not merely what scientists discovered, but how they discovered it.-Pref.
