Die Anatomie trifft auf Beispiele aus dem Alltag, die jeder kennt. So erfahren wir, was der Augapfel mit einer Zwiebel zu tun hat. Warum manche Leute husten müssen, wenn sie ihre Ohren putzen. Wo man aus Knochen Mark entnimmt oder Flüssigkeit nachfüllt. Und, welche Organe lebensnotwendig sind und auf welche man verzichten kann.Jens Waschke erklärt aber nicht nur wie unser Körper aufgebaut ist und funktioniert, sondern auch, wie die häufigsten Volkskrankheiten entstehen. Was passiert, wenn jemand ein Magengeschwür bekommt? Oder einen Herzinfarkt? Und was ist eigentlich die Schaufensterkrankhei... Auch mit Missverständnissen wird aufgeräumt: Etwa dem, warum es genau genommen gar keine Blinddarmentzündung gibt.Und immer wieder streut er Anekdoten und Wissenswertes aus seinem Anatomen­Alltag ein. Ein lockerer, unterhaltsamer Reiseführer von Kopf bis Fuß – eben von der Locke bis zur Socke.
