Textbook (required):
For biology, marine biology, and athletic training majors (marine biology, and athletic training majors will also use this book for BI102; biology majors will also use it in BI102 and BI108):
Name: Campbell Biology; Authors: J. Reece (also L. Urry, M. Cain, S. Wasserman, P. Minorsky, and R. Jackson); Edition: 11th; ISBN-13: 9780134446523. Comes with MasteringBiology access. Published by Pearson.
I have listed the information for the ebook version of the textbook, but I do not care if you use the hardcover, or softcover, or ebook versions (as long as you have one of the versions, that's enough). The ebook comes with MasteringBiology because it is used in the BI102 and BI108 courses, but we will NOT be using the online MasteringBiology component in BI101 because it is not required for all BI101 students.
For all other majors:
Name: Campbell Biology custom book (only chapters 1 – 18); Authors: J. Reece (also L. Urry, M. Cain, S. Wasserman, P. Minorsky, and R. Jackson); Edition: 11th; ISBN: 675922. Does NOT come with MasteringBiology access. Published by Pearson. You can purchase the ebook directly from the company website: https://collections.pearsoned.com/purchaseebook/#1323878920 or you can purchase an access code from our CMU bookstore using the ISBN number 675922 (and then take the access code to the above website to get the book).
I have listed the information for the ebook custom version of the textbook. If you would rather purchase the complete textbook that is okay with me (it could be in the hardcover, or softcover, or ebook format). We are also NOT using the online MasteringBiology component.
For all students in BI101:
All students should receive a copy of the openstax free textbook called Biology. You can download a PDF of the book for free or use the online version of the book for free. You can also get a print version at a low cost (not required). It can be found at this website: https://openstax.org/details/books/biology
You will be expected to read a textbook.
