Opis
The skeleton is the framework of the body. It supports, moves, and protects. It allows us to walk, run, jump, and swim. This superb collection of photographs brings its variety, complexity, and ingenuity of design vividly to life.Starting with the complete human skeleton, the book explains how each set of bones functions, and examines in detail the construction of the skull, the spine and rib cage, hands and arms, and legs and feet. A wide range of animal bones and skeletons are included to highlight the similarities and differences relative to humans. It also describes what bones are made of and how they grow.Produced in association with the Natural History Museum, London, Skeleton is a unique and compelling introduction to skeletal structure and mechanics.Here is an exciting and informative guide to the workings of human and animal skeletonsSuperb colour photographs of the bones of the human skeleton offer a unique 'eyewitness' view of how our bodies work, and highlight a host of comparisons with the skeletons of birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and mammalsSee the 206 different bones in the human body; how your skull differs from a lion's or a chimp's; how teeth grow, and what each different one is for; what the inside of a bone looks likeLearn how bones mend themselves when they break; why half the bones in your body are in your hands and feet; how many toes a horse has; what has happened to the tail you once hadDiscover which are the smallest bones in the human body; why some creatures wear their skeletons on the outside; what animal once owned the oldest bones ever found on Earth The Human Skeleton From Bone to StoneMammalsBirds Fish, Reptiles and Amphibians Skeletons on the Outside Marine Exoskeletons The Human Skull and TeethHow the Skull is Built Animal Skulls Animal Senses Jaws and Feeding Animal Teeth The Human SpineAnimal Backbones The Rib Cage Human Hip BonesAnimal Hip Bones The Human Arm and HandArms, Wings and Flippers Animal Shoulder BladesThe Human Leg and FootAnimal LegsThe Largest and Smallest Bones Structure and Repair of Bones Glossary of Bone NamesIndex
