About this title

Synopsis

Anatomica is a complete illustrated guide to the human body, designed to help us understand the systems, parts, and processes that make our bodies work.

The first section of the book covers the major body systems: the circulatory, digestive, endocrine, lymphatic, muscular, nervous, autonomic nervous, reproductive, respiratory, skeletal, and urinary systems.

This is followed by a comprehensive encyclopedia of the body. Detailed explanations and superb illustrations cover the different parts of the body, as well as diseases, disorders, and medical procedures and alternative therapies. These are all listed in one alphabetical sequence for quick and easy reference. A useful section on first aid is also included.

The last section comprises the index - a fully cross-referenced guide to help you find the information you need, both in sickness and in health.

A huge international team of medical experts, illustrators, researchers, editors and designers have combined their talents to make this an authoritative work which demonstrates both the intricacy and the beauty of the human body.
