Some of the principal systems of the human body are the circulatory system, digestive system, the nervous system, respiratory system, muscular system and the skeletal system.

This textbook attempts to understand the science of human biology in an interdisciplinary manner.

This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles in the field of human biology and related fields.

Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
