Book Reviews of CliffsAP Biology (CliffsNotes AP)Book Review: AP Biology 9780470097649 Summary: 4 Stars
The structures shown in figure 2-5 and 2-6 have errors in them. The fatty acid portion of the structure is wrong. There should not be a carbon atom between the oxygen atom and the carbonyl group. Compare that to structure D on page 27, which is correct.
I have not reviewed the entire book. If you'd like a comprehensive editing/review, my friends and I have hundreds of years experience in chemistry and biochemistry (Ag science R&D) and are all currently unemployed. We enjoy working as a team. Since our lay-off, several of us have tutored or taught chemistry lab classes at the college level.

Book Review: Good supplement for AP Biology Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a great review to use before tests, but not substitute the text book. It has all of the main information from the AP Text, but not all of it. The only downfall I've seen so far is that the labs are not quite in as much detail as I would like.
Book Review: Overall Helpful Summary: 3 Stars
This book was helpful, it gets to the point and provides a summary of the need to know facts for the AP Biology Exam. However, it is not helpful in picky details, it's very helpful for review and pointing out small facts that are easily forgotten. The practice exams and set up is easy to follow and utilize.
Book Review: unecessary Summary: 1 Stars
I had such a good teacher that I didn't actually need this. I went through it once, but it didn't really tell me anything helpful
