Human Body Anatomy

Human Body Anatomy is a readable guide for anyone who wants to understand how the human body is built and how its parts work together. The book begins with the Greek origin of the word anatomy, meaning to dissect, and explains how the field divides into macroscopic and microscopic anatomy. From there, readers learn how the body is organised from cells into tissues and then into organ systems, and how anatomy, physiology and histology each contribute to the study of the human body. The text gives detailed but accessible explanations of anatomical concepts from beginning to end, with physiology highlighting the organs and systems of the body and their functions. Every topic is presented in a way that is easy to read and easy to learn from, making the material approachable for students, exam candidates, healthcare professionals and self-learners who need a solid grounding in human anatomy. As an e-book, it can be read on any device, and readers can search and bookmark sections for quick revision whenever they need them.
