    Summary:

    In this course, Howard University professor John K. Young looks at how the human body is constructed and how it can malfunction if not properly maintained. These lectures address not only the basic anatomical bones and organs that constitute the human form, but also the role each plays in the synchronized effort to keep us alive.
