Description:
In the style of his successful Some Body! (Knopf, 1995) Dr. Pete Rowan takes us on a revealing tour of the human head, one of the most complex structures on earth. Peel back the layers of your skin (using the book's lift-off acetate pages, for the real peel-back effect) and open up your skull to discover your brain. Watch it grow from one tiny cell into the complex, multifaceted, multifunctional organ that controls your entire body. Broken down into its components and their functions, and shown with clear, diagrammed illustrations, the brain is revealed, spread by spread, part by part, including the eyes, ears, nose, neck, and mouth.
