From the Publisher

Take a jaw-dropping interactive head-to-toe tour of your body

"For kids interested in bodies and how they work--and who aren't ready
to dig into Grey's Anatomy--there's no better reference than this
vividly illustrated book." — Entertainment Weekly

Amazing 3D images reveal all your major systems in molecular detail. Discover how the nervous system works, the intricate construction of skeleton and muscles, and how your body protects itself when you are under threat.

Interactive DVD-ROM allows readers to find and name any body part, to analyze body systems, and to see intricate body processes in action. Zoom in on a body part and see the bodies processes in action from a nerve impulse to blood surging through an artery. Journey inside and examine what can go wrong with the human machine: explore the causes and symptoms for diseases and ailments.

An unmissable in-your-body adventure, The Human Body Book is perfect for students, families and health professionals.
