When my body hurts, I look for
The Anatomy Professor's Atlas of Human Medicine

Do I need to know anatomy if I'm not a doctor?
Anatomy may seem unfamiliar at first, but it is actually very useful knowledge even for the general public.
Let us remember that anatomy is the starting point and foundation of modern medicine.
Knowing anatomy means understanding how your body is structured and how it works.
Therefore, knowledge of anatomy prevents you from wasting time and money on health tips of unclear or bizarre origins, and provides a foundation for taking more proactive and effective care of your health with the help of a doctor.
This is similar to the principle that if we understand the principles of home appliances or automobiles, we can use the products well in everyday life and utilize the service well when requesting repairs.

How wonderful it would be if everyone could easily access such useful anatomical knowledge.
Here, we present Dr. Ken Ashwell's "Encyclopedia of Human Anatomy."
This book is a guidebook designed to make anatomy accessible to everyone, and is also a very useful medical textbook for those who are interested in health information and want to maintain their health with the right knowledge.


You need to know the structure of the body
It also treats diseases properly.

《Encyclopedia of Human Anatomy》 guides readers into the complex and wonderful world of the human body with concise yet to-the-point explanations and vivid anatomical illustrations that rival those found in medical textbooks.
In particular, the anatomical illustrations that fill this book are incredibly detailed and informative.
It contains images and concepts that could never be conveyed in a typical text-based book, helping readers better understand and remember the location, structure, and function of numerous muscles, bones, organs, and nerves.

First, this book sequentially explains the 11 human body systems, including the muscle, endocrine, lymphatic, and urinary systems, and then examines the structure and principles of the human body by region, such as the head, neck, and chest.
In the first chapter, which describes the major systems of the human body, readers will understand what each system does to keep our bodies healthy, and even learn about the organic structure and roles of the systems.

This point becomes clearer when we look at the section of the book that deals with the circulatory system.
The circulatory system, simply put, refers to the system by which blood circulates throughout the body.
This book focuses on the heart, the center of the circulatory system, while also clearly showing the structure of the circulatory system that extends from head to toe.
Blood supplies oxygen and nutrients to various organs and carries away waste products and carbon dioxide.
Ultimately, the circulatory system cannot be explained without mentioning the respiratory and urinary systems.
Naturally, the organic structure of each system is revealed.
This book tries to show readers how closely the body is connected.

The human body is a complex structure made up of many intertwined components.
Therefore, anyone who wants to clearly understand the functions and structure of the human body must always pay attention to the organic structure of the human body.
The same goes for people who want to acquire correct and useful health knowledge.
People who suffer from headaches usually worry about what is wrong with their head.
This is because it is intuitive to think that there is something wrong where there is pain.
However, the headaches that modern people experience are often caused by tight muscles in the shoulders and neck.
This symptom occurs when the muscles distributed in the shoulders and neck press on the surrounding nerves.
To properly understand even a single headache, we need a holistic view of the human body.

Clear and easy to understand
How the human body works and how it is structured

This book helps readers organically understand the complex structure of the human body by dividing it into various parts, such as the head, neck, chest, arms, and feet, and examining them one by one.
This book structure is a way to understand the human body structure in more detail by reviewing it from a different perspective, divided by system.
It uses very detailed anatomical diagrams to help you understand how various organs, bones, muscles, nerves, and blood vessels are intertwined to form parts of the human body.


It is also noteworthy that the author's expertise is evident throughout the book.
The author has been teaching anatomy at the University of New South Wales, Australia, for several decades.
He is a medical expert who has published several anatomy books for the general public and medical students and has written over 100 academic papers.
This book is a useful guide for both the general public who wants to understand the structure of the human body and students interested in medicine, as it explains specialized medical knowledge in an easy-to-understand manner with accurate and concise explanations by a current medical school professor.

Organized with elaborate illustrations
Human body systems and parts

At some point, everyone reaches an age where they start to worry about their health.
At that moment, we tend to look for foods or health methods that are good for our bodies.
Naturally, people are becoming more interested in health knowledge, but the problem is that incorrect or incomplete information often fuels fear and creates anxiety and impatience.
While show doctors who only promote sensational information on the Internet or TV broadcasts are a problem, the general public's lack of specialized medical knowledge is also a reason for feeling uneasy.


If you listen to doctors, you may have had many experiences where you doubted whether you had the disease.
At times like these, we need proper health knowledge to keep our body and mind centered.
It is important to take care of your health by relying on medical science with objective, proven effectiveness rather than relying on unproven folk remedies or health methods, freeing yourself from excessive worry and anxiety based on accurate medical knowledge.
The Encyclopedia of Human Anatomy is a very useful book because it helps anyone access accurate medical knowledge.
This book, which contains detailed anatomical diagrams and concise explanations, will help you understand the structure and function of the human body and serve as a compass for managing your health.
