Neglect of Biological Rhythms in High School Biology Texts.
Ahlgren, Andrew; Nelson, Julie Ann
American Biology Teacher, v41 n6 p344-48 Sep 1979
This article developed from a survey of the five most popular biology texts which promote the theory of invariant homeostasis rather than biological rhythms. The popular fad of "birthdate biorhythms" is discussed in relation to providing education on biological rhythms and its legitimacy to the public. (SA)
