This unique visual guide approaches a body as if it were a map, divided into "continents" (such as parts of the body) and "countries" (such as organs). Detailed illustrations carefully pull back the layers of the body so that readers can see inside the hidden interior. All bones, muscles, and organs are clearly labeled with scientific and common names.
