Description
Key Benefit:
This best-selling introduction to the physical and life sciences emphasizes concepts over computation and treats equations as a guide to thinking so the reader can connect ideas.
Conceptual Integrated Science covers physics, chemistry, earth science, astronomy, and biology at a level appropriate for non-science readers. The conceptual approach relates science to everyday life, is personal and direct, deemphasizes jargon, and emphasizes central ideas. The conceptual ideas serve as the foundation supporting and integrating all the sciences.
Key Topics:
About Science, Describing Motion, Newton's Laws of Motion, Energy and Momentum, Gravity, Heat, Electricity and Magnetism,
Waves-Sound and Light, The Atom, Nuclear Physics, Investigating Matter, Chemical Bonds and Mixtures, Chemical Reactions,
Organic Chemistry, The Basic Unit of Life-The Cell, Genetics, The Evolution of Life, Biological Diversity, Human Biology I-Control and Development, Human Biology II-Care and Maintenance, Ecosystems and Environment, Plate Tectonics, Rocks and Minerals,
Earth's Surface-Land and Water, Surface Processes, Weather, Environmental Geology, The Solar System,The Universe
Market: Intended for those interested in gaining a basic knowledge of physical science
