【图书简介】 Take a journey inside the mysterious world of our body， through pages of beautifuland detailed anatomical images. Analysis and summaries throughout the text will allow us to study the human body， from its posture and bipedal walk， to the development of the brain and speech and of those anatomical structures thatcharacterize us and distinguish us from animals. Following this， other organs arediscussed， including the elements that characterize them. Each topic is connected to another through a network of "references" which allow us to skip from one to the next as if it was a hypertext. We believe that this structure is the best way to learn and understand anatomy and the human body. It is， in fact， the transversal wayof "reading "the body， which evokes the profound inter-relations between thecomponents of this wonderful "organic machine" called the body.-读书网|DuShu.com
