Dennis Holley Shares Passion for Animal World in New Textbook
A biologist shares his passion about the animal world, creating an introductory-level college zoology textbook that centers on concepts instead of terminology. Dennis Holley’s new book, released by Dog Ear Publishing, is clearly focused on students.
Shelton, NE, February 26, 2016 --(PR.com)-- There is much more to zoology than simply instructors in a classroom sharing information. Instead, it’s the end result of investigation, experimentation and discovery via exploration in the animal kingdom. A new textbook released by Dog Ear Publishing not only presents facts and concepts but also encourage students to think and act like zoologists, applying the same scientific process used by professionals.
“General Zoology: Investigating the Animal World” aims to connect students and society to animals from different perspectives, whether ecologic, medical, economic or cultural, showing how animals and human beings are intertwined, no matter how complex the organism. The textbook begins with a short history of zoology as a discipline and moves on to ecosystems, animal behavior, the realms of the animal world, ending with mammals and humans.
Tables, charts, illustrations and photographs handily illustrate concepts, and an extensive glossary helps define terms. Review and reflect questions at the end of each chapter challenge students to incorporate science process skills and zoological principles while applying their ability to think creatively and critically about this important subject. Personal anecdotes interspersed into the book showcase Holley’s love of all things in the natural world.
Author Dennis Holley has taught biology at high schools and universities for nearly 40 years, nourishing his passion for all living creatures. He has written science curriculum materials, including lab manuals and textbooks, and he writes a blog found at www.zoologytextbook.com. His goal is to infuse a sense of wonder and awe for the many amazing examples of life found on Earth in his students and readers.
