Catatan
The Endocrine System by Lynette Rushton is a reference book that explores the structure, functions, and mechanisms of the human endocrine system. It is part of The Human Body: How It Works series, published by Chelsea House Publishers in 2009.
The endocrine system is one of the body's important communication systems, operating through hormones as chemical messengers. These hormones are produced and stored by specialized glands and released into the bloodstream to reach target tissues and organs, where they regulate various physiological functions.
The book explains how hormones contribute to human growth, metabolism, and sexual development. It discusses hormone-producing glands and the chemical communication mechanisms that enable different organs and systems to function in coordination.
In addition to explaining the functions of the endocrine system, the book helps readers understand the importance of hormonal balance in maintaining the body's internal environment and supporting human health.
The book includes full-color photographs and illustrations, supplementary information, a glossary, references, and an index. It is primarily intended for students and general readers interested in learning about the anatomy and physiology of the human endocrine system.
