Paperback. Condition: Acceptable. Vintage Pelican. #A373. The Human Machine by Sir Adolphe Abrahams, in its Pelican edition, is a clear, accessible exploration of how the human body functions when viewed through the lens of physiology and physical performance. Abrahams, one of Britainâs pioneering sports physicians, explains muscular action, circulation, respiration, fatigue and recovery in straightforward terms, showing how everyday movement and athletic effort rely on finely balanced biological systems. He emphasises the importance of training, nutrition and sensible habits, arguing that understanding the bodyâs mechanics is key to maintaining health and improving capability. Itâs a tidy, informative volume that distils early sports-science thinking into a practical guide for readers interested in how the body works and how to look after it.…
