Description

Designed to give students a deep understanding of the central topics of introductory biology, E. O. Wilson’s Life on Earth is a captivating iBooks Textbook presented as a seven-unit collection. In this first unit, we explore the unity of life by examining the shared features of all living things, inherited from a universal common ancestor. In addition, we look at the evolutionary mechanisms that—over the course of 3.5 billion years—created the countless species and forms of life that populate our diverse living planet. Each unit of the engagingly interactive E. O. Wilson’s Life on Earth features video, photo galleries, and Multi-Touch images and illustrations that inspire students to study, enjoy, and help protect the wonders of life on Earth.

    Tried to download to a college-issued iPad to no avail. Clearly, an account with Apple ID is needed (the college-issued iPad is “managed” that prohibits personal accounts. Maybe this was the problem other users had??). Switch to my personal iPhone and download the whole series without any issue. Simply AirDrop the file to my iPad iBook. It works like a charm! In contrast to all other free open source textbooks, the art works/illustrations in this free book are excellent. In fact, this book is better than lots of costly textbooks. My only concern is how some of my students who do not own an apple mobile device could access these books. I hope that I could somehow generate PDF version of these books.
  • I would give more BUT I NEVER GOT TO READ IT!

    How am I supposed to be able to read this book if it won’t download??? Whenever I download it takes like 20 minutes but as soon as it finishes it just cancels. Legitimate scam.
  • Nice book but CAN’T DOWNLOAD

    I want to read this but it just doesn’t do the thing: DOWNLOAD! No wonder it’s free instead of paying so this is a scam.

    Can’t delete them off my phone. Tried deleting the whole collection. Tried downloading each book on its own. But it just crashes the app or doesn’t download at all. Please do something about this
