Human Body

Our fascination with our bodies and how they work, why they go wrong, and what to do to heal them is boundless. TheHuman Bodytakes readers on a fascinating journey inside their bodies, from head to toe. Includes more than 300 entries and is divided into 8 easy-to-navigate sections: head and neck, spine and spinal chord, thorax, arms, abdomen, pelvis, legs, and whole body systems. Each entry is accompanied by a quick reference information table that includes body system, location, function, components, and related parts. Artwork and annotations on the various bones, muscles, internal organs, blood vessels and nerves, help provide a complete picture of a specific area of the body. Detailed enough for medial or nursing students, theHuman Bodyalso makes a helpful reference guide for general readers.De Burgh, Jane is the author of 'Human Body ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781592237364 and ISBN 1592237363.
