Biology Made Simple (Made Simple)

Summary: Good reference for biology
Review: I found this book to help a lot when studying the structure of DNA, Genetics and five kingdoms. I was assigned Campell's Biology for my undergrad biology 1 and 2 classes. Although this textbook had every topic imaginable about college biology, I found Biology Made Simple easier to comprehend. I also used
The Ultimate Study Guide for Biology: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Patrick Leonardi
Vol 1
Vol 2
Vol 3
These last three study guides were so good for preparing me for the type of questions to look out for on my bio midterms and finals. They helped me get excellent grades.

Summary: Biology made VERY simple.
Review: If you're looking for a good, but VERY basic review book, this one is great. I did not make it through the whole book, but the parts I read were very clearly written. However, it is VERY basic. If you're using this book to study for something like the GRE or the Praxis II exam, you will need another book in addition to this one. But it's a good start if you need a good basic background in biology.
