Inside the Human Body is a BBC TV documentary where Michael Mosley embarks on an astonishing voyage through the world's most complex organism–you.

Revealing the workings of the human body on a scale never seen before, this is the most comprehensive account of how our unique and amazing bodies make us who we are.

Breathtaking CGI takes viewers inside the body to show how different parts of our anatomy have evolved and why. Presented by Michael Mosley this programme takes us deep under our skin where we are dwarfed by even the smallest cell. Spectacular photography shows human behaviour in super slow motion, revealing elements of ourselves that we are completely unaware of.

“I have to thank my sister for introducing this series to me, I have enjoyed every second of it.There are a lot of detailed computer animated scenes to show you what happens within the body so you can get a good idea of what happens, there are some scenes which some people may find "disturbing” obviously unintended to upset anyone, but the fact is this is life and this is what happens, you can't just hide yourself to what can happen. Nevertheless this series is extremely educational, with a lot of facts that I didn't even know until now, I would recommend this for older children, but would recommend parents to watch through it first to make sure it is 100% suitable for their kids age, if you think they will be able to handle some scenes I think this DVD would be very beneficial to their education. Top stars from me! MyKeyReviews

“Great graphics bring the basics taught in Anatomy & Physiology books to life. Good use of terminology, would help those with no previous knowledge as an introduction, those who haven't done any biology for a while and as additional revision for those studying (For Scottish Qualifications I would recommend this for Intermediate 2, Standard Grade at Credit or those doing Higher Human Biology along with their course text. Even those in 1st year nursing would appreciate it). Would recommend as a visual aid to learning. Excellent.” Julia C MacDonald
