"در سه دهه گذشته، زیست شناسی کمبل پیشروترین متن کالج در علوم زیستی بوده است. این متن به 19 زبان ترجمه شده است و میلیون ها دانش آموز را با پایه ای محکم در زمینه زیست شناسی در سطح کالج فراهم کرده است. این موفقیت نه تنها گواهی است. به دیدگاه اصلی نیل کمپبل و همچنین به تقدیم صدها داور (فهرست شده در صفحات xxviii-xxxi)، که همراه با ویراستاران، هنرمندان و همکاران، این اثر را شکل داده و الهام گرفته اند.


توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی

"For the last three decades, Campbell Biology has been the leading college text in the biological sciences. It has been translated into 19 languages and has provided millions of students with a solid foundation in college-level biology. This success is a testament not only to Neil Campbell's original vision but also to the dedication of hundreds of reviewers (listed on pages xxviii-xxxi), who, together with editors, artists, and contributors, have shaped and inspired this work"--
