DESCRIPTION:

This book presents all that you need to know about the brain and nervous system. This book shows how the brain is the control centre for the body and at how the brain regulates hundreds of body parts and processes. It also looks at the network of nerves that carry messages to all parts of the body. The clear and lively text explains how all this works in fascinating and intricate detail. It also highlights the workings of the human body, contrasted with the bodies of animals. There are case studies about, for example, the importance of sleep. There are also features on health and medicine, considering the effects of damage to the brain and nervous system. Amazing colour photographs combine with original colour artwork to show the different body parts in detail. This book provides links to recommended websites offering additional information.
