基礎(chǔ)生命科學（英文版）

　　本書是吳慶余編著的《基礎(chǔ)生命科學》的英文版，由加拿大McMaster University徐建平和清華大學吳慶余教授共同編寫，是國內(nèi)自編的第一本全彩色、面向大學本科學生的通識課英文版教材。本書內(nèi)容簡單明了，通俗易懂；基礎(chǔ)與前沿并重；從宏觀到微觀，再由微觀回到宏觀，既深入淺出，又能既見樹木又見森林。不但講授最基本的生物學知識，還特別介紹了一些著名科學家的實驗設(shè)計和研究經(jīng)歷，以及他們獲得這些知識的實驗程，有助于激發(fā)學生學習的熱情和興趣。本書語言流暢，適合作為生物科學、生物技術(shù)、生物工程等專業(yè)的生物專業(yè)英語教材和理工、師范、農(nóng)林、醫(yī)學院校生命科學導論課程的雙語教材，還可供研究人員與高校教師參考。作者簡介：Jianping Xu received a Bachelor's degree in Agronomy from Jiangxi Agricultural University， a Master's degree in Agricultural Microbiology fiom Nanjing Agricultural University， and a Ph.D. degree in Population Genetics and Evolution from University of Toronto in Canada （1997）.
