Designed to give students a deep understanding of the central topics of introductory biology, E. O. Wilson’s Life on Earth is a captivating iBooks Textbook presented as a seven-unit collection. In this first unit, we explore the unity of life by examining the shared features of all living things, inherited from a universal common ancestor. In addition, we look at the evolutionary mechanisms that—over the course of 3.5 billion years—created the countless species and forms of life that populate our diverse living planet. Each unit of the engagingly interactive E. O. Wilson’s Life on Earth features video, photo galleries, and Multi-Touch images and illustrations that inspire students to study, enjoy, and help protect the wonders of life on Earth.

Brilliant engagement w subjectI've already downloaded a few other of these units and they are stellar achievements. Illustrations leap off the page. This could have applications to a wide range of students, not just high school. Terrific. Thank you to all involved!.Score: 5/5

AmazingThis is an amazing series. We are using it as a foundation for my homeschooled son's high school biology. I have successfully downloaded all the units, although each one took between thirty minutes to an hour to download. I downloaded them onto our regular computer (windows), then transferred them onto an old ipad with no problems. You need ibooks on your ipad. For the second book, it said I downloaded it, but once I was in my own itunes library, I had to click on the book before the ipad transfer, and then the download went through. Hope that helps someone who is having trouble..Score: 5/5

Amazing books!Tried to download to a college-issued iPad to no avail. Clearly, an account with Apple ID is needed (the college-issued iPad is “managed” that prohibits personal accounts. Maybe this was the problem other users had??). Switch to my personal iPhone and download the whole series without any issue. Simply AirDrop the file to my iPad iBook. It works like a charm! In contrast to all other free open source textbooks, the art works/illustrations in this free book are excellent. In fact, this book is better than lots of costly textbooks. My only concern is how some of my students who do not own an apple mobile device could access these books. I hope that I could somehow generate PDF version of these books..Score: 5/5
Looks great, just wish it would downloadI have been trying for months to get this book to download. It has set on my bookshelf and I've been unable to open or even delete. Finally I got it to disappear last week. Thinking that it was just a fluke I tried again. I really wish I had read the reviews first. Book one is stuck again so I'm going to give book two a try..Score: 1/5
