2007 RELEASE! Humans and other vertebrates are the most prominent animals on earth, and share a collection of characteristics that have made them the world’s dominant forms of life. Newly revised, the award-winning Mechanics of Life series examines the human species in particular, and illustrates how it functions as the sum of a number of independent yet interacting systems and sub-systems. Through an artful combination of live-action photography and animation, the brand-new "Mechanics of Life" video series describes and illuminates each of these systems from the inside out. A perfect introduction to human biology and physiology tailored to the middle-school audience.
