The Oxford University Press Biology list was recently ranked by the Book Marketing Society as the number one organismal biology list in the UK. The scope and content of the list can be described in general terms as "Ecology and Evolution", with a particular reputation for quality in the fields of evolutionary biology and epidemiology. As well as maintaining these strengths, the list continues to expand in the fields of ecology, conservation biology, physiology, animal biology, marine biology and plant science. The list is aimed at a market largely comprised of graduate students and academic professions.

Dollars For Scholars
At the heart of Scholarship America lies our Dollars for Scholars division—more than 1,200 locally based, volunteer-driven chapters serving students in nearly 4,000 communities across the country. With support from our national office and seven regional offices, Dollars for Scholars chapters help hometown students achieve their educational goals by raising scholarship funds, establishing endowments, providing assistance with college readiness and the financial aid process, and distributing scholarships each year.
Dollars for Scholars is also the parent group of two other major initiatives. There's ScholarShop, an activity-based college-readiness curriculum that helps students in grades 4-12 (and their parents) identify career paths, prepare for postsecondary education, and navigate the admissions and financial aid process. Over 700,000 students have graduated from the ScholarShop program ready to face what's next.
The Collegiate Partners program involves more than 500 colleges, universities and technical schools to help maximize the impact of financial aid from our organization. Many even have matching-fund agreements, and all are committed to helping students get the most out of their Dollars for Scholars scholarship.

The AXA Foundation is the National Contributing Sponsor for Dollars for Scholars.
