It is now four years since the first edition of this Biology Book appeared. Biological science is developing very rapidly, and during these years a burst of knowledge has been introduced. This has made a new edition desirable and I have taken the opportunity to make many revisions. Most of the chapters in this edition have been rewritten according to the new syllabus released for Medical Entrance. Articles have been extensively updated with emphasis on recent trends of Medical Entrance Examinations. Most diagrams have been replaced by better ones and several new diagrams have been introduced to explain the intricacy of the article. This edition continues the original intention to provide a generic textbook that presents fundamental concepts. The entire text in this revised edition retains the objectives and format of the first edition. Thanks to all our readers who appreciated our efforts for providing this unique kind of book. The usefulness and need for a book of this style, organization and contents, have been increased by current trends of entrance examinations.
