I have a PhD in biology and I've never heard of Campbell Biology, or any book just referred to as "Biology".


“Neil Allison Campbell (April 17, 1946 – October 21, 2004) was an American scientist known best for his textbook, Biology, first published in 1987 and repeatedly through many subsequent editions. The title is popular worldwide and has been used by over 700,000 students in both high school and college-level classes.”

Yup, so an undergrad textbook that's popular in some countries. Hardly foundational!


It seems like it's a commonly used undergrad textbook?
