A unique opportunity for students to learn biology through stories about biology’s
great discoveries and the people who make them told by one the great science
storytellers of our time: Sean Carroll. This enriching text follows the structure of
an introductory biology course, with brief stories that span the breadth of the life
sciences. This gives maximum flexibility to assign a few stories, or all of them.

Developed by a science journalist and instructors at both the college and high
school level, Biology Now, High School Edition, was created with three distinct goals
in mind: to increase students’ ability to think critically, encourage them to identify
and engage with the world around them, and to tie the concepts they learn to
Next Generation Science Standards. A robust digital program further reinforces
these goals.
