Could you build a human body from scratch?

The best way to understand how something works is to take it apart and put it back together again. But how would you make your very own human body? Where would you start? What would you need? And how would you fix everything together? This book is a step-by-step guide. Of course, it wouldn’t be quite so easy in practice ... But after reading this book, you’ll certainly know what we humans are made of!
