Synopsis

There are 100 quizzes of 10 questions each, graded and colour-coded for three levels of difficulty. Easy-to-follow symbols lead you to the relevant pages in the reference section where you'll find the answer to the question plus masses of other interesting information on the topic. For Quiz Masters there is also a 'Quick answers' section at the back of the book with a blank question and answer sheet so the whole family can get involved. The core reference section is packed with facts on the human body - how it works, what is good for it, what can go wrong and the medical treatments available to remedy ill health. Find out about cells, tissues, genes and chromosomes; learn how the different body systems work - from the digestive system, kidneys, brain and nervous system to hormones, vision and hearing; discover how your diet affects your health, what exercise can do for you and the effects of ageing; and find out how diseases are diagnosed and treated by incredible surgical procedures and drugs.

You can either use this book as a straightforward reference source or if you simply want to browse, you will find that each fascinating piece of information leads you on to discover another and another and another.
