Incredible Body (1998)

Stephen Biesty's Incredible Body, 1998 Biesty applies his cross-section method to the human body: two tiny explorers travel through arteries, veins, bones and organs, meeting teams of body people who keep everything running. Where The Way We Work explains the systems in depth, this short book is the visual way in. A younger reader follows the journey across each spread and comes away knowing where things are and what they do, while an adult reading alongside fills in the detail. Richard Platt writes the text, and DK reissued it in 2020 as Incredible Body Cross-Sections.
