Knowledge Encyclopedia Human Body!

I picked up this Smithsonian Human Body book for just $8, and even though it's currently priced at $14, it's still an incredible value for the amount of information packed inside. While I believe it's primarily designed for kids, be forewarned: this book literally covers everything you could possibly want to know about the human body. So, if you're not quite ready to have "the talk" with your younger ones, you might want to preview it first! That being said, it's an incredibly interesting book for readers of all ages. The visuals are truly amazing – detailed, engaging, and they really bring the complex systems of the body to life. Whether you're a curious child, a student, or an adult just looking to learn more about how we work, this book is a fantastic resource. Highly recommend it for its depth, visuals, and overall educational value!

In Dorling Kindersley fashion, this book is engaging, thorough, accurate, has exceptional illustrations and pictures, and makes the reader want to keep reading.

Great Book for all ages 7+. Well illustrated, providing details for a solid understanding of how our bodies work, relying on multiple systems. I puchased for a child of 8, but I found myself engrossed within minutes., viewing how our bones are supported to the channels our food travels and leaves our digestive system. Once done with that journey, I was enticed to follow the human circulation system. I studied all of this in high school and college, but now it has far more meaning as I age, and these parts start to fall apart.

Great 👍🏻 vivid colors, lots of facts about human body, very informative and interesting for kids and adults

This is an excellent book with fabulous pictures of the different parts of the body. I wanted a resource for my grandchildren and I plan to use this as a teaching tool. Like, where is your tibia? The photographs and drawings are superior! You can always count on DK to have the most realistic pictures and complete information.

I buy these Smithsonian books for my 3 nephews (all <10yrs old). THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM. They read and look at these every night. I even love looking at these books! They are very educational and they have wonderful pictures. I was... I guess worried about the reproductive section in this book and what information and pictures would be included. The pictures are tactful and the information is very scientific and an excellent resource for kids (or anyone!). Incase anyone else is wondering the same thing before buying for their kids: the info is tactful anatomical pictures with the body parts identified (male and female, along with female breasts) and a page on what the egg and sperm are and what happens when they meet (no sexual pictures or pictures of intercourse) . As an L&D nurse myself I can say the pregnancy section is excellent!!! It offers amazing illustrations of a pregnant woman and illustrations of how a fetus grows (no pictures of birth). My nephews did say the pictures of the eyeballs were 'creepy' but other than that, they love it.

This book is great.......except that kids are learning incorrect color info! This is so basic and so very wrong....pretty disappointing for Smithsonian

Quality is excelent! Even for me, as an adult person is very interesting! Its thick, colors is amazing! A lot to discover with kids! Sometimes I opened this book, to explain kids something about their health. Especially when they want to eat sweets, or junk food

Habe das Buch auf Deutsch. Das Englischsprachige habe ich verschenkt. Tolle Buch mit schönen Bildern zu einem fairen Preis….

Beautifully illustrated, this book is a perfect introduction to anatomy and physiology for young students. The text accompanying the illustrations is peppered with interesting details and is clear, concise and basic enough to hold the attention of readers young and old. My 9-year-old grandson loved receiving this book. An age-appropriate degree of caution may be required regarding the section on Reproduction, but overall the book is a great reference for the bookshelf and will be useful for years to come. Highly recommended!

Detailed and nicely laid out book that provide info for youngsters I'd say suitable all the way to highschool. At times, it is the diagrams and graphics that get children interested in the subject. Very nice.

It perfect for a science enthusiast child from class 7 to other

Full of knowledge and great pictures and photos. Wish I had such books during my study days
