Long description

This title combines anatomical terminology and describes functions so readers not only learn names and terms, but also gain an understanding of how the human body works. There is a 16-page colour insert with drawings to help the reader to see the big picture and put all of the information together. Throughout the book, dozens of black and white drawings illuminate anatomical features and functions. Readers will not only learn what a feature is and what it does, but coverage of pathophysiology will show readers what can go wrong with it.
