The Human Body in Minutes – by Tom Jackson

9 12 2024

A marked improvement on the world history version, this was more science-y which is my cup of tea, and less assumed knowledge which is where the other one fell down for me. It still had a few typos, which makes sense given it’s the same series of books, but a different author at least improved the other issues.

It’s a page per thing, and covers all sorts of levels too, so right down to individual types of cell, up to whole systems across the body, and at the end, cloning, and death – so most things you’ll want to know about will be in here, it’s all just brief, which is what I wanted. Most double page spreads are a page with a couple of paragraphs on the left, and a diagram on the right. Good for an overview.
