Review:
The contents of Higher Human Biology with Answers are set out as the three units are in the exam syllabus, which makes organising teaching a lot easier. ...testing your knowledge panels placed within the subtopics... is a good way of getting students to reread the text for consolidation.
Overall, the book covers all the main points in the syllabus, it allows the students to reflect on the material through its questioning... and it is easy on the eye.
(TESS)
...the larger print, the double column format and more spacious layout are a very definite plus. The whole appearance of the text is easier on the eye and more user-friendly.
The format matches the new Higher Still units' allowing student clearly to see what each one comprises.
The range and number of questions is very valuable to staff and students. It usefully links familiar knowledge and understanding and problem-solving types of questions to those in the 'testing' and 'applying' categories.
... The Appendix on Endocrine Glands is a useful addition. ... the second Edition has several improvements...
(Marion Hart, Harlow Academy, Aberdeen.)

This volume mirrors the appearance of previous ones and, although larger, has a familiar and direct, 'no frills' approach to delivering the content of the SQA syllabus for human biology at Higher Grade. ...
This edition has introduced new sections that frequently text knowledge and understanding as well as 'applying' knowledge in relation to problem solving - a required element of this course. The text meets high standards of accuracy and, by being succinct, provides information in a readily accessible manner. ... Students are supported by frequent analysis of their progress. The text provides ample opportunities to set homework, revision and independent study.
The Torrance team remain 'Scottish champions' in providing accurate text for school biology students in Scotland.
