is the third book in a general science series that offers a carefully crafted sequence of coordinated readings, laboratory experiences, activities, and extended projects that challenge students' problem-solving abilities and call them to integrate their learning in biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics.

The unifying theme of the Science: Essential Interactions series is the importance of understanding science, in all of its interactions, in everyday situations. Its pedagogical philosophy is that science must be approachable and understandable for all students, and that it becomes understood through an active process that involves students participating both physically and mentally in problem-solving work. Ultimately, these essential interactions develop thoughtful, scientifically literate individuals.
