The Student Edition takes the student from cells to plants and animals and finally to the pinnacle of God's creation's humans. All of this is a quest to understand the life that God has created. Clear, accurate scientific images help students picture the structures they study. Case studies, webquests, lab activities, ethics boxes, and questions help them think like scientists and view life science from a biblical perspective. - Publisher.
