About this book

A plain-English guide to the human body and how it works

Looking for a companion text for your anatomy and physiology class? Need a refresher for a course you took years ago? Or are you just interested in learning more about how the human body works?

This all-in-one guide covers all you need to know about anatomy and physiology, including:
  • Scientific terminology for organs, systems, and functions
  • The functions of each system in the body
  • How systems are formed, from conception through adulthood
  • Diseases and disorders that affect each system
With simple explanations and dozens of illustrations, The Everything Guide to Anatomy and Physiology provides a detailed look into the wonders of the human body.
