Atlas of Human Anatomy. Detailed Illustrated Guide

To understand the structure of the modern human body, this book first examines our ancestors and the stages of evolution that shaped Homo Sapiens' anatomy. Throughout our development, we have learned to walk upright, mastered language, and created tools with... our incredibly adapted opposing thumbs. Learn how to "read" evolution in our DNA and its functions. Take a look at the micro-world using microscopes and other special visualization devices and see for yourself the structure of cells, how neural connections are organized in the brain, and what the iris of the eye is made of. All the numerous organs and systems work harmoniously together, forming the human body — these processes are already being studied by physiology. In the atlas, it is described in the finest detail and considered from the most extraordinary angles. The nervous, digestive, cardiovascular, respiratory, reproductive, and other systems are presented in detail in this comprehensive and elegant atlas. The book will take you from infancy to old age and back, showing how our body grows and changes and what can go wrong. Inside: - body as a unified organism; - anatomy; - physiology; - life cycles; - diseases and disorders.
