ISBN: 9798176763720 - the forms of the human body: a popular anatomy book (3 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Why do we get goosebumps when we are afraid? Are bones alive? Why do our muscles hurt the day after exercise? How many lungs do we really need? Do we see with our eyes-or with our brain?The Forms of the Human Body begins with twenty questions like these and uses them as gateways into anatomy, histology, physiology, and the history of medicine.Moving continuously from organs to tissues, from cells to the whole person, Francesco Cappello explores the human body without reducing its complexity. Everyday experiences become opportunities to understand how structure and function are connected, how disease can illuminate normal anatomy, and how discoveries made over centuries still shape the way we see ourselves today.Written for students, physicians, teachers, scientists, and anyone curious about the human body, this is not a conventional anatomy textbook. It is an invitation to rediscover anatomy as a living story-scientifically rigorous, accessible, and, above all, driven by curiosity. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
