L. Etingen “The human body is familiar and unfamiliar. A course of lectures on normal anatomy” A lively and fascinating story about the human body, about how we are “arranged”. Lev Etingen, MD, has been teaching anatomy to students for over 50 years. In his new book, he does not seek to present science as omnipotent and omniscient, and if there is no convincing research on any issue (for example, about what exactly causes changes in the shape of the heart in older people, age as such or disease), then he is honest about reports this. This is the second edition of the Lectures, supplemented by a section on the largest human organ, Skin and Its Derivatives. Also, information about age-related changes in organs has been added to most chapters — they are not available in most anatomy textbooks.
