These popular slides provide instructors with data figures that expand on the concepts in the book. None of these figures appear in the text. All previous supplementary data PowerPoints have been revised and updated, and the set now includes a total of 50 slides.

Revised lecture slides integrated with figures and tables provide instructors with lecture notes and teaching suggestions.

These enhanced PowerPoint slides take the book’s updated “Analyzing the Evidence” infographics and optimize them for classroom presentation in PowerPoint.
