Created by anatomist Gunther von Hagens and curator Angelina Whalley, BODY WORLDS: The Anatomy of Animals is a completely new type of animal world that gets under your skin. Never before have lay people been able to gain such deep insights into the design of our animal relatives, which amaze even vets! Through the aesthetic presentation of real, anatomically prepared animal bodies, the exhibition turns death into the source of illustrative knowledge about life and raises awareness in the observer s mind about the protection of species. The 140 pages of this catalog show the extraordinary: anatomical specimens, prepared and preserved with a new technology developed by Gunther von Hagens. In addition to the medical and anatomical information about different animal bodies, including a bear, an elephant, and a yak, the catalog contains interesting articles on the topics of bones, muscles, the nervous system, and organs. The first edition of this catalog, attractively designed and fully illustrated in color, certainly matches the original exhibition, BODY WORLDS, in fascination and didactic standards!
