Biological Reviews publishes synthetic reviews, based on the literature, covering important biological questions that are interesting to a broad readership and are timely (e.g. from a fast-moving field, or due to new discoveries or conceptual advances). A 'synthetic review' goes beyond compiling information, rather it should analyse the information and build a new theoretical or conceptual framework that can substantially reshape the area
《生物学评论》根据文献发表综合评论，涵盖广泛读者群感兴趣的重要生物学问题，并且是及时的（例如来自快速发展的领域，或由于新发现或概念进展）。“综合审查”不只是汇编资料，而是应分析资料，建立一个新的理论或概念框架，从而大大改变这一领域的面貌
