Description
Your brain controls every part of your body from head to toe. It lets you know your stomach is empty and your bladder is full. It converts sound waves into recognizable noises and upside-down images into pictures the right way up. Even when you’re asleep it tells your heart to keep beating and your lungs to keep breathing and still has time to give you a dream or two.
BRAIN SURGERY for beginners looks at the human body from the control centre – the BRAIN – and examines all aspects of the body from the heart, lungs and liver to muscles and bones.
Find out how your body works and discover how far we go to cut, mend, stitch, repair and replace all sorts of body parts.
