 - Great Guide and Manual!!You learn so much from this book its a must read get it for anyone you know. It has alot of things in here you should know about. Higly recommended!! Rating: - GREAT INSIGHT!"How Well Do You Know Your Body?" begins this enlightening 544-page book. It continues with how blood is pumped throughout your body, how your brain works, how your body moves, how you breathe, how food is digested, how your immune system works, and how sexual and sensory organs work. This updated edition of the book includes the quiz along with a new chapter on the liver and pancreas, which describes the function and purpose of each. The authors also debunk popular myths about the body. The contents include: Preface Chapter 1: Your Body, Your Home: Super Health Chapter 2: The Beat Goes On: Your Heart and Arteries Chapter 3: Do You Mind: Your Brain and Nervous System Chapter 4: Motion Control: Your Bones, Joints, and Muscles Chapter 5: To a Lung and Healthy Life: Your Lungs Chapter 6: Gut Feelings: Your Digestive System Chapter 7: In Your Trunk: Your Liver and Pancreas Chapter 8: Sex Marks the Spot: Your Sexual Organs Chapter 9: Common Sense: Your Sensory Organs Chapter 10: Sick Sense: Your Immune System Chapter 11: This Gland is Your Gland: Your Hormones Chapter 12: Hell Cells: Cancer Chapter 13: The Owner's Manual Diet Chapter 14: The Owner's Manual Workout Chapter 15: FAQs Index This book is both instructive and entertaining. It includes a large (70-page) chapter on diet, which has over 30 recipes. The diet really emphasizes keeping your body healthy and young. The book also has a 24-page chapter, "Owner's Manual Workout", which provides easy-to-do exercises. This is a great book that makes understanding the human body accessible to those without a degree in physiology. I also recommend THE 3:00 PM SECRET: Live Slim and Strong, Live Your Dreams and The 2007 Second Expert Report, Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer: a Global Perspective.. Rating: - THE YOU MANUAL REVIEWI have merely read random chapters /pages off the Manual and I am already totally convinced it is a wonderful buy that I have made. The style of presentation is easy-going even when it is dealing with serious subjects and that is good for a Manual one wants to read in a relaxed mode. Rating: - Great infoLots of interestingly written information to help one stay or become healthy and live longer and better. Rating: - very informativeI found this book to be very informative (and commically written). I have the greatest respect for Dr.'s Rozen and Oz.
