BIOLOGY TEXT ADDENDA
for
the Biology Textbooks listed below

Today’s Biology Textbooks generally mislead the reader into believing that evolution has no negative aspects.

This web site provides some of the well known information and facts left out of textbooks but found in literature regarding evolution. These addenda are as brief and complete as possible, so the reader obtains an appreciation for the subject material discussed in the text.

This material* is for students, parents and teachers who desire a greater appreciation of the discussion of evolution as presented in a particular text. Each addendum is keyed to its textbook so the reader does not have to search for the relevant material in other places.

The information presented in these addenda does not mention creation or have anything to do with religion so can be legally used in the classroom.   

Note: There is tremendous overlap of the material presented by the various authors so there is much repetition in the presentations given.  However, do remember that all textbooks do not cover exactly the same material.
