Organ by organ and system by system, Richard Walker and Steve Parker's reference maps what is inside us and how the parts work together.
Three-dimensional illustration and annotated cutaways carry the anatomy, while the text covers physiology, the body's responses to disease and the maintenance of health. Skeleton, muscles, circulation, respiration and the nervous system each receive detailed treatment, in language accessible to general readers without losing precision. This is a study and reference title; medical concerns belong with a qualified clinician.
Worth noting:
• Every major body system described with annotated 3D imagery
• Physiology explained alongside structure rather than separately
• Content updated with current biological and medical understanding
• Written by two established science authors for DK
Suited to medical and biology students, teachers and readers with an interest in anatomy, this DK reference is available through Boipoka.
