R120 R109 Discovery Miles 1 090 Save R11 (9%) Ships in 5 - 10 working days

A human body book with a twist – discover the science behind the weird and unusual stuff our bodies can do from Dr Azmain Chowdhury, with illustrations from Daniel Nelson.

You know your heart is always beating, your intestines digest your food, and even that your brain is still awake when you’re asleep – that’s no mystery. But why do we get "brain freeze" if we eat ice cream too quickly? And why on earth do we get butterflies in our stomach when we’re nervous? And is it true we can squirt milk from our eyes?!

This book focuses on the bizarre things all of our bodies do – including things we don’t understand (looking at you, appendix). Dr Azmain also asks the burning medical questions we’ve all been wondering about:

  • Why does coriander taste like soap to some people?
  • How long can we stay awake for?
  • Can our hearts actually break after a romantic break-up? (Asking for a friend).

Filled with gross, surprising, and downright terrifying facts, it’s bloated with cool science to impress your friends.

Told with Philip Bunting’s inimitable wit, this new non-fiction picture book will explore the most fascinating part of the human body, the bit that makes you YOU, your brain.

It is pretty easy to argue that the human brain is the most extraordinary thing in the known universe. But there is so much we don’t know about the thing behind our eyes. Where do thoughts come from? Why do we dream? Why have our brains become 10% smaller over the past ten to twelve thousand years? Why do we get brain-freeze? Why!? Okay, that last one … we do know the answer to. But there is much to learn – and much fun to be had – by taking a quick poke around the human brain (which would feel a bit like tofu, or firm jelly, if you did poke it).

Your Brilliant Brain dives into the complex and intriguing world inside your head, covering various topics like:

  • The different parts of the brain, from the brain stem to the cerebellum
  • How neurons, synapses, and nerves function
  • The senses, emotions, and all the unconscious things your brain does without you even knowing!
  • Memory, learning, and sleep
  • The nitty gritty, like how the brain has evolved, or what the Basal ganglia does
  • ... and more!

    From the Look Closer series, this richly illustrated concertina book takes you on a journey through the deep dark waters, all the way down to the seabed, before floating back up to the surface. A follow-up to The Street Beneath My Feet, The Skies Above My Eyes and The World Around Me, this visually stunning book ventures to the very bottom of the sea on a journey of discovery. Through the waves and into the deep, you'll spot all kinds of weird and wonderful marine creatures, explore the seabed and discover the impact humans have had on the underwater world. As you dive below the surface, past sea otters playing in fields of giant kelp, you will see sea lions and shoals of mackerel playing in the shallows, before passing orcas hunting in pods in the deeper water. As well as animals, discover the technology which is used under the sea, from scuba breathing apparatus to oil pipelines and deep sea submarines. As you reach the very bottom of the sea, the 'twilight zone' where very little light can filter through, you will meet the mysterious creatures of the deep such as Lanternfish and the luminous swell shark. This book is part of the Look Closer series, a set of concertina books which help teach us about the mysteries which can be found in the world around us.
