With Genetics: A Conceptual Approach, Ben Pierce brings a master teacher’s experiences to the introductory genetics textbook, clarifying this complex subject by focusing on the big picture of genetics concepts and how those concepts connect to one another.


The new 7th edition continues this mission by expanding upon the powerful pedagogy and tools that have made this title so successful. New question types, more learning guidelines for students, and an updated art program round out a powerful text, and improvements to the online resources in SaplingPlus give students the conceptual and problem solving understanding they need for success.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genetics Book (Rental)

This is a rental book. It is in great shape. Clean colorful pages and intact. Usually, I buy books because I'm hesitant to rent due to their wear and tear. This book has been very helpful. I would rent it again.

As for the book, it is very informative. It's detailed information helps me understand genetics. I find it to be a very good book. It helps if you have an understanding of biology.

4.0 out of 5 stars Page Numbers?
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2021
Verified Purchase
This is a really great textbook, but my professor is giving us pages in the textbook to read and I have no way of finding the pages she is referring to. I see page numbers in the app, but they never correspond to the chapters that we are assigned portions to read. The pages in each chapter in the eBook are always too high. Could anyone tell me which page Chapter 1 starts on? If I knew this, then maybe I can line up the page number in the eBook to the pages in the physical book.

I regret purchasing this book for my Genetics course. Turns out I need an access code for the Achieve learning program and will have to pay an extra $110.00 to do so. Check with your professor/instructor before purchasing this book!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not easy to navigate on iPad or Macbook
Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2021
Verified Purchase
I was looking forward to the benefits of having a digital textbook: ease of jumping to sections form the table of contents, ease of searching for keywords, ease of using hyperlinks.

I got 1 benefit which is searching for keywords, but THAT IS IT. The table of contents is non-existent, the conversion from pages to locations is a major headache. ["locations" instead of "pages" is a general problem for e-text.] Jumping from page to page is also sluggish.

I would like to return this rental if I could. I am not happy with it.

It didn’t come with an access code, which is the only reason I BOUGHT IT, and didn’t rent! Because in the description for renting it, they said no access code!
But it was in good condition.

I ordered this text book on Friday afternoon and it arrived the following day - in the morning!! This never happens in Perth (where I live), so I was very impressed.
The book itself is recommended reading for the undergrad daughter, so I was very impressed the price and the extraordinary delivery time.
