Into the book
Humans have always been fascinated by the human body.
Early scientific illustrations and commentary show just how long our fascination with the human body has lasted.
People who painted cave paintings and wrote hieroglyphs also understood the complex structure of the human body.
Even today, we are still uncovering the mysteries of the human body.
--- p.9 "Introduction: An Adventure in Anatomy of the Human Body, Starting from Cells"

This book is written for readers who do not have a PhD in biochemistry.
Even people who have studied high school biology for decades can understand the principles presented in this book.
If you learn the basic concepts thoroughly, you will eventually come to understand the complex human body.
Remember, you already have an advantage because you all have a human body!
--- p.10 "Introduction: An Adventure in Anatomy of the Human Body, Starting from Cells"

The human body and the world it inhabits were created thanks to the interactions between atoms, the building blocks of matter.
Atoms come together to form elements, pure substances that cannot be broken down chemically (further decomposition is the domain of nuclear reactions).
(Atomic means are needed to decompose the elements).
Various elements combine to form cells, the smallest functional unit of the human body.
For example, blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body.
The structure of blood cells is different from that of nerve cells or muscle cells, which perform different functions.
The structure and function of these cells are all determined by chemical principles.
--- p.19 "Cell Chemistry"

What's the largest organ in the human body? Surprisingly, it's the skin.
Our skin, made up of several layers, covers our body and protects us from infection and dehydration.
Hair on the skin detects touch and maintains body temperature.
Sweat glands in the skin lower body temperature through evaporation.
--- p.85 "Skin, Hair, and Nails"

Bones are the architectural structures that give the human body its unique shape.
Without our skeletal system, there would be little we could do.
If we were just a big lump of soft tissue (not bones or teeth), we wouldn't be able to sit back on the couch and watch TV.
Bones do much more than just give the human body its physical form and work with muscles to move it.
It also makes blood cells and stores calcium.
--- p.105 "Musculoskeletal System"

The nervous system is the main control center of our body.
It is made up of sensory receptors that detect information occurring inside and outside the body, and neural pathways that transmit that information to the brain.
The brain receives this information, processes it, and decides how to respond.
The responded signals originate in the brain, pass through the spinal cord, and travel through the nerves to various target organs in the body.
All information that passes through the nervous system is transmitted in the form of ions and chemical signals that flow in and out of nerve cells.
Therefore, the core function of the nervous system can be said to be information transmission.
--- p.163 "Signal Transmission in the Nervous System"

We are surrounded by countless pathogens, and our immune system is constantly searching for them, rearranging its genes.
In these situations, it's surprising that immune system problems don't occur more often.
Evolution has long been experimenting with how to efficiently operate our body's complex defense system.
Yet, problems often arise with the immune system.
Let's look at some of the most common problems.

For beginners in anatomy
The world's friendliest introduction

We usually think of anatomy as a difficult and unfamiliar field of study.
I think it is a special field of study that only medical school students or professionals working in the medical and health field study.
But anatomy is much more closely related to our daily lives than we think.
Because everyone lives with a ‘body.’
The author also says that we all “already have an advantage because we have human bodies,” and that “even people who have not taken high school biology for decades can understand the principles in this book.”
In this way, 『Anatomy Class: Finally Encountered』 is an introductory book that explains things in a friendly manner that even readers who have never studied medicine or biology before can understand.
You can feel the author's know-how and expertise in teaching anatomy for over 20 years through simple analogies and clear explanations.
'Terminology Dissection' helps organize difficult concepts and names, and 'Reading One Step Further' adds depth and interest to reading.
Accurate and rich visual material is also a unique strength of this book.
It contains over 100 human anatomy diagrams actually used in American anatomy textbooks, helping readers easily and accurately understand the content explained in the text.



Starting from the cell
Systematic study of my body


When you think of "anatomy," what images usually come to mind? Some might picture realistic drawings clearly showing the shapes of bones, organs, and muscles, or perhaps Leonardo da Vinci's human anatomy drawings, with arms and legs outstretched in the shape of the letter "大."
But this book doesn't start with such a big picture.
Rather, it takes the opposite strategy.
The story begins with the smallest unit that makes up the human body: the cell.
This is because, rather than simply memorizing the names of each part, it is essential to understand the functioning of the cellular unit in order to understand the fundamental operating principles of the human body.
As an author who majored in biology, he covers the main materials that make up the human body, such as cells, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, and then gradually expands the scope to tissues, organs, and systems.
We carefully examine each of the nine 'systems' that operate the human body, including the skin, bones, and muscles, namely the nervous system, cardiovascular system, lymphatic system, immune system, digestive system, respiratory system, endocrine system, urinary system, and reproductive system.
This systematic organization will provide a more solid foundation than any existing anatomy book.


Becoming blood and flesh
Essential Knowledge for My Body


This book is not simply a textbook listing complex human body parts and structures.
It is a kind of 'practical book' that is organized to connect knowledge about our body to real life.
It provides knowledge that helps maintain health by including disease and disorder sections for each body part and system.
It broadens my understanding of my body, including how the human body perceives sensations and how it consumes nutrients.
As you read this book, you will realize that the study of anatomy is practical knowledge for protecting and managing our bodies.
Of course, this book is extremely helpful not only to medical school aspirants and students, but also to those working in the health and medical field, such as nurses and physical therapists.
With explanations and color anatomical diagrams reflecting the latest medical knowledge, it concisely covers almost all knowledge about the human body, making it a reliable reference for those seriously studying anatomy.
“The body is a rare and wonderful structure.
“Studying the human body reveals the connection between a healthy body and a successful life,” said American physician Frederick M.
Rossiter said.
"Anatomy Class: Finally Encountered" is a guide for everyone who wants to live a good life with a healthy body.
Whenever you're curious about your body, feel free to open it.
You will gain valuable knowledge that will allow you to better care for and manage your body.
