The Digestive System: Injury, Illness and Health

(4) YA Body Focus series. Twenty double-page spreads introduce human organs and functions for each book in this series. The full-color diagrams, micrographs, and photos are clear and accurate but, disappointingly, show mostly adults. Minor production errors mar almost every volume. Each ends with a "What Can Go Wrong with My...?" section featuring a chart summarizing ailments, causes, symptoms, prevention, and treatment. Reading list. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Body Focus titles: Bones, The Digestive System, Heart and Blood, Lungs, Hormones, and The Reproductive System.]
