Anatomy & physiology

Anatomy & physiology for dummies by Maggie Norris and Donna Rae Siegfried is a good read and very enjoyable along with videos from crash course - https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8dPuuaLjXtOAKed_MxxWBNaPno5h3Zs8.

Our body has many parallel systems. It’s amazing to know that how evolution has fine crafted a being like us, or, one may simply amazed by this creation of God, depending on from which school of thought you are from. Never knew that there is a system called lymph network in our body. Memory is not binary storage. Spine can take local decision - remember you pull hand at the prick of a pin. Your smell sense is resulted by chemical bonding. Hormones play a very vital role in keeping things together. Heart is an amazing pump which brings in oxygen depleted blood and pumps out oxygen rich blood. Urinary system is as amazing as blood circulatory system.


The book deals with skeletal system, muscular system, integumentary system, nervous system, endocrine system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, immune system, reproductive system and change and development over the life span. It’s complicated!
