Do you think DNA stands for “Don’t Know the Answer”? Do you still cling to the belief that osmosis was the name of Ozzy Osbourne’s last tour? If you said yes to any of these questions—or even if you didn’t—then you need The Cartoon Guide to Biology . The latest from New York Times bestselling author Larry Gonick—writing with Davidson College biology professor David Wessner—is a hilarious and informative handbook to the science of life. From the inner workings of the cell, to the magic of gene expression, to the Krebs and Calvin cycles, to sexual and asexual reproduction, The Cartoon Guide to Biology uses simple, clear, humorous illustrations to make biology’s most complex concepts understandable and entertaining. Whether you’re peering into the microscope for the first time or brushing up after decades of de-evolution, this book has you covered. Review: Ignore the negative reviews if you're buying the print version. - Excellent book and and a fine complement to the Cartoon Guide to Physics and the Cartoon Guide to Chemistry by the same author. I did not purchase the Kindle version, so I can't answer for the negative experience those readers have had. If you're buying the print version, this is a great book which comprehensively and accessibly breaks down a complex subject into easy - and amusing - chunks. It has certainly helped me reconnect with biology after many years. 5 stars! Review: Clever and informative, per usual - I can't speak for the digital format (as other reviewers have thus far) but the soft-cover version is great. I own several of Gonick's books and the content of this one is on-par with his other works. Clever and informative, per usual. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #52,992 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #20 in Science & Scientists Humor #44 in AP Test Guides #56 in Biographies & History Graphic Novels | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 279 Reviews | ## Images ![The Cartoon Guide to Biology - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81eZ7-qcXlL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ignore the negative reviews if you're buying the print version. *by C***T on August 19, 2019* Excellent book and and a fine complement to the Cartoon Guide to Physics and the Cartoon Guide to Chemistry by the same author.
