5.0 out of 5 stars Clear, comprehensive and compact, 28 Oct 2009
By 
M. Conway (Newcastle, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Concise Human Body Book: An Illustrated Guide to Its Structure, Function and Disorders (Paperback)
I purchased this book as it is a requirement for a course which I am due to commence and one of the subjects I have to study is anatomy and physiology. It is very easy to understand, very well illustrated and I have found members of my family absorbed in its pages. It would, in my opinion, be an excellent study aid for young people and those studying biology etc. My favourite book so far as to finding out just how the human body works.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bring back the earlier Ann Baggaley or, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!, 1 Nov 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: The Concise Human Body Book: An Illustrated Guide to Its Structure, Function and Disorders (Paperback)
Back in 2001 Dorling Kindersley produced an excellent little book, Human Body: An Illustrated Guide To Every Part Of The Human Body And How It Works , a tad smaller than this 'The Concise Human Body' Book but 448 pages as opposed to the 320 of this. Both edited by Ann Baggaley, both Dorling Kindersley publications. I can only assume that this equally beautifully illustrated, but somewhat glossier, is regarded as the successor to the sadly out of print 2001.

Personally, I feel VERY sad that the earlier book is no longer available outside 'used' at a reasonable price. Had I not been in possession of the earlier book, I might have 5 starred this, it is indeed visually stunning (a hallmark of DKs house style) but the text is less clearly written and to some extent illustrations a little less clear - the earlier book...

    Will Dean's Ideas Factory: Billr app means an end to asking 'Why am I paying for your steak?'

    Trending: Hardbacks vs e-books: the sequel

    In the world of journalism it's called a "reverse ferret" - a story breathlessly announcing that Black is White, just 24 hours after confidently asserting that Black is Black. In the genteel environs of publishing, it's a volte-face. Whatever it is, James Daunt, owner of Daunt Books and managing director of the Waterstones chain, executed a classic twirl at the weekend.

    Invisible Ink: No 124 - Hans Fallada

    His pen-name was created from two characters in Grimm's fairy tales, but his novels had little in common with the moralistic fantasies of mittel-Europe. Rudolf Ditzen was a magistrate's son, raised in Berlin and immersed in Dickens, Flaubert and Dostoevsky. He became one of the greatest German authors of the 20th century, but was not translated into English until 2009.

    The curious world of Norton Juster

    Some people are very easy to interview. Norton Juster is not one of them. He's delightful and articulate, but listening to the recording of our time together, it's striking how much more interesting his answers are than my questions. So our conversation entirely failed to resolve classics such as "Where did the idea for your book come from?" and ended up instead about vocational education, bipolar disorder, obscure Edwardian ghost-story writers, C P Snow, synaesthesia and the walks Juster used to take with his older brother. In some respects, it's hardly surprising; Juster has been giving interviews about his children's classic The Phantom Tollbooth for half a century, so might be forgiven for wanting his conversations to roam elsewhere.

    How Aharon Appelfeld chronicled the Holocaust

    Blooms of Darkness, in Green's graceful, grave and irresistibly readable English version, tells the story of Hugo, a young Jewish boy in an occupied town in eastern Europe who loses his parents to the camps but stays alive thanks to the shelter and salvation offered him by a local prostitute, Mariana. It extends and deepens one of the most remarkable journeys in all modern literature. In a prolific career whose highlights include novels such as Badenheim 1939, Tzili, The Immortal Bartfuss and The Iron Tracks, as well as the memoir The Story of a Life, Appelfeld has interrogated the meaning of what happened to him, to his community, and to humanity itself, during Europe's era of genocide.

    Gwendoline Riley: A portrait of the artist as a brooding young woman...

    Gwendoline Riley was finishing her first novel at the age that most of us were sleeping in, bunking off, or congregating around a pint at the student union bar. Turning her university dissertation into her debut, Cold Water (2002) she signed a two-book deal at the age of 22. Since then, she has accumulated a hipster-ish following and several literary awards (Somerset Maugham Award, the Betty Trask Award, a John Llewellyn-Rhys Memorial prize shortlisted nomination).
