Structure of the Body and Disease

With the spread of COVID-19, Omicron, and Omicron variants, health literacy, the ability to understand health information, has become more important than ever.
In order to live a long and healthy life in the age of centenarians, we must understand the structure of the body and diseases.


What is the mechanism by which infectious diseases like COVID-19 develop? Where is the location of pancreatic cancer, which is often difficult to detect? What is the structure of the adrenal gland and what are the functions of adrenal cortex hormones? How does cerebrovascular disease develop? This book can answer all your questions.


This book is written for the general public who are interested in diseases occurring in the human body and want to learn basic knowledge.
As a doctor, the author believes that the best way to understand human disease is to comprehensively understand the complex system that is the human body. Based on his experience conducting pathology lectures that organically link the form and function of each part of the human body and the interaction between each organ, he has rewritten those lectures for the general public.
The 'Pathology Classroom' at the end of each chapter can be read comfortably like an essay.


Through this book, anyone can gain a sense of the complexities of the human body and the structure of disease through a variety of diagrams and precise explanations. This book offers a glimpse into the seemingly inaccessible fields of pathology, anatomy, and physiology.
