Book Title: An Interactive Introduction To Conservation Biology

Book Description

As the study of life, biology can truly help us understand the world around us. Whether we are studying how organisms interact with each other and their environment or how water and nutrients move through an organism, we can learn about the world around us and understand our role and place in it. Learning concepts at their basic level is important, and then being able to apply these lessons and solve problems or see their relevance to other issues is equally important.

The goal of any introductory course is to introduce students to the basic principles of that discipline. More details and a deeper understanding of these principles will come as you take additional upper-level courses focused on that area. At the introductory level, we explore and see the relevance of issues. The hope is that this book will be useful in that end. It will supplement what you are covering in class, provide additional information in a different way to aid in your learning the material and inspire you to explore other related websites and content.  There are various activities and videos embedded in the text. I hope you take the time to watch, interact, and apply what you are learning.
