Each body part and function is clearly labeled, making it easy to discover the names and locations of bones, muscles, nerves, blood vessels, organs, and more, while concise captions explain especially complex structures and mechanisms, such as temperature regulation, breathing, and digestion. The book begins with an introduction to the body systems and regions, followed by an overview of the microscopic elements, such as blood cells and DNA, that make up the body. The major body systems - from the skeletal and muscular to the urinary and reproductive - are then examined in detail. Body parts and regions are shown from different angles, and cross-sectional illustrations reveal the internal structure of joints, limbs, and organs. Informative and interesting, [the book's] accessible visual style ensures that people of all ages will enjoy exploring the wonders of the human body." - from the French style inner front softcover flap.
