Illustrated Dictionary of Biology
The Usborne Illustrated Dictionaries are more than just word books. They are densely illustrated guides to the key terms and concepts of each subject. Each book is arranged thematically so the words are explained in context, and the definitions are supported by detailed pictures and diagrams to aid understanding. Words are easy to find using the comprehensive index at the back of the book. The books have been prepared in consultation with experts and great care has been taken to arrange the words in a way which is logical to the reader as well as to the subject. Definitions are written in clear and simple language and technical terms are explained whenever they are used.
