Welcome to an On-Line Biology Book Table of Contents. Click
on the underlined items to go to those chapters. The text items are
modified lecture outlines I have developed over the many years of
teaching college-level introductory biology. Use of my text for
educational purposes is encouraged and appreciated, however
many illustrations are taken off the web, and I
have indicated the source page (when that page still is an active
link) and tried to provide a link back to the original. In addition,
several companies have most graciously allowed me to use their
images. If you are desiring to use these images yourself please
contact the party indicated in each figure caption.
NOTES: These pages have been
recently (2/97-present) revised and updated. Please let me know your
thoughts (mj.farabee@emcmail.maricopa.edu).
We have been very popular: over 400,000 visitors between Jan. 1,
1999 and September 17, 2001. Thank you!
