Anyone who’s ever wondered what makes us tick, or who wants to understand the workings of the human body, will be fascinated by this stylish, information-packed book. It starts literally at the head, looking at faces, brains, hair, eyes etc and goes right down to the toes, via everything in between!
The information is conveyed via eye-catching graphics, clearly labelled and accompanied by short but clear and informative panels of text. Readers will pick up a good appreciation of how various organs and body parts work and learn the meanings of words such as enzymes, phalanges, synapses, ulna.
They will also be entertained by some fascinating body facts, e.g. that yawning isn’t a sign of being sleepy or bored - it’s a reflex your brain uses to wake you up and help you stay alert.
Attractive to look at and full of information, this is a really engaging introduction to the body.
