"Schaum's outline of Biology" is the one everyone uses. The other 2 are crap. I was confused like you, and somehow ended up ordering all 3. The "Schaum's easy outline of Biology" is like a 50 page summary of the "Schaum's outline of Biology", and it is worthless. The "Schaum's A-Z Biology" is in an encyclopedia format (alphabetical topics), and i thought it would be useful in case I came across a word I wasn't familiar with, but in practice the words I was looking up weren't even in the book. Anyway, "Schaum's outline of Biology" is the way to go.
