Recommendations on Bio Books

<p>I wanted to review biology over the summer, and having some trouble choosing what book to read...</p>

<p>I am thinking about either Campbell Biology 8e or Life: The Science of Biology 9e.
Just not sure which book has more info, and as well as easier comprehension on the subject.</p>

<p>Im also trying to have some time to read:
Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry
Molecular Biology of the Cell
Human Physiology: An Integrated Approach...</p>

<p>Are these 'good books' to learn and review the basic cycles and physiology of human body??
(I'm a bio major student, freshman this september)</p>

<p>Look up what book your school is going to use for your courses, and then use those.</p>

<p>But seriously, why would you spend your last summer before university studying? Go have some fun! My high school senior summer, I worked in a grocery store part-time and partied it up.</p>

<p>I’ve been using Campbell’s Bio book and Cumming’s fundamental’s of Anatomy and Physiology. But there is no way you can get a good review out of it before the Fall. I plan to get the AP Biology review book by Princeton review or Barron’s.</p>

<p>Campbell is the bible of intro bio.</p>

<p>Off the top of my head, (and incidentally sitting on the bookshelf in my lab at the moment), I would suggest Cooper’s or Lodish’s Cell, Lehninger’s Biochemistry, Campbell’s Biology, Griffith’s Genetic Analysis. These should all be available from a public library and many are free online at pubmed [Books</a> Home](<a href=“http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/books]Books”>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/books) Happy reading</p>
