About the Book Make physics more relatable through real-world connections New - Topics of interest to life science students, such as the nature of the drag force at different scales and qualitative and quantitative descriptions of diffusion, provide current coverage of relevant topics based on the evolving consensus in the Introductory Physics for the Life Sciences community. New material stressing the application of physics to life sciences includes structural color in animals and plants, the electric sense of different animals, the circulatory system, and forces and torques in the body.Expanded Exclusive real-world data used in hundreds of new end-of-chapter questions and problems ensure students can make sense of answers grounded in the real world. Questions and problems show physics at work in realistic, interesting situations and test different types of reasoning using equations, ratios, and graphs. Data from Mastering Physics make sure problems cover a wide range of difficulties for each topic and problem-solving approach.New - Examples throughout the book use the chapter concepts to explore interesting, realistic situations, from how bees use electric fields to locate promising flowers to how a study of force and torque in the jaw explains why dogs have long snouts and cats don't.New - Physics topics connect to other courses that students are likely to take. For example, a new section connects the concept of the conservation of energy to topics from chemistry, including ionization energy and the role of a catalysts in reactions.New - Photos and captions begin each chapter to engage students. Questions raised at the start of the chapters are answered in the flow of the chapter. Help students understand the big picture New - Learning Objectives keyed to relevant end of chapter problems help students check their understanding and guide them in choosing appropriate problems to optimize their study time.Enhanced Chapter Previews focus on the three most important ideas and align to specific learning objectives. In addition, they explicitly mention the one or two most important concepts from past chapters and finish with a new "Stop to Think" question, giving students a chance to build on their knowledge from previous chapters and integrate it with new content they are about to read.Looking Back Pointers in the body of the text provide "just-in-time" references that encourage students to refer back to relevant material from earlier chapters.Unique visual chapter summaries help students organize their knowledge in a coherent hierarchy, rather than a jumbled set of disconnected facts, figures, and equations. Help students develop strategic problem-solving skills Problem-Solving Strategy Overviews provide the "big picture" with clear statements of what types of problems a strategy is intended for and how to use it. This makes the strategy more self-contained and therefore more useful as a reference.New - STRATEGIZE step in examples shows students the "big picture" view before delving into the details. Classroom testing of this addition has shown it to be popular with students and effective in teaching problem-solving skills.Tactics Boxes give explicit procedures for developing specific skills (drawing free-body diagrams, using ray tracing, etc.).Integrated Examples at the end of each chapter demonstrate problem solving in the context of a capstone, multi-concept real-world scenario. They are designed to help students to bridge the gap from section-based worked examples in the chapter to general homework problems spanning the whole chapter, or many chapters.Jeopardy Problems in the Student Workbook ask students to work backward from equations to physical situations, enhancing their understanding and critical thinking skills. The acclaimed Student Workbook also provides a bridge between the book's narrative and solving problems, providing a rich source of other confidence- and skill-building exercises, mostly qualitative and/or graphical in nature. Foster skills for the MCAT Emphasis on Critical Thinking and Reasoning requires students to rely on real-world data, and ratios and proportionality, and to assess answers to see if they make physical sense. The MCAT has been restructured to test competencies, not knowledge. Students will be required to reason, to do more than simply plug in numbers into equations. Of the hundreds of new end-of-chapter problems, many of these cover Expanded Life-Science and Biomedical Applications. Building on the book's acclaimed real-world focus, even more applications from the living world have been added to text, worked examples, and end-of-chapter problems, giving students essential practice in applying core physical principles to new real-world situations.Preface Studying for and Taking the MCAT Exam gives students concrete tips on preparing for this exam, and the MCAT-Style Passage Problems that conclude every chapter allow students to practice this style of question.Part Summary integrated problems close each of the seven parts of the book. These take student problem-solving one step further by covering topics that span several chapters---something the MCAT routinely does.
