Philips Guide to the Human Body covers anatomy and physiology, functions of organs and systems, and disease and treatment. The book divides into two main sections.
The first forms an illustrated handbook to the anatomy and physiology of the human body. The artworks are clear and instructive with detailed annotations and captions. Informative and accessible text explains all details of the artworks and the functioning of the various organs and systems. It also points to the diseases that may affect these organs.
The second part of the book provides articles, arranged alphabetically, covering diseases, treatments, medicines, and a wide range of medical terms to form a concise medical encyclopedia for both instance reference and study. All the terms are explained in clear, straightforward language. Useful illustrations, charts and diagrams complement the text.
