Review: The complete Human Body is, for a title, optimistic at best. The level of detail is good for up to the 8th grade. The bones are named, but the fossa's, condyles, foramen's and Etc. are not.

Sections of the brain are listed, but detailed descriptions are not. The nervouse system is not broken out into specific nerves. Nueurotransmitters are mentioned and illustrated in a cartoon animation but no detail is provided. Muscles are named, but no details of the connections are provided.

The graphics are good and this is suitable for children, but the box advertises this product as a "A solid resource for anyone with an interest in the Human Body" and it is nothing more than a childrens game.

Summary: It's Okay
Review: This is an average product. The first disc is pretty cool. It tells all about the human body. It has information on each of the bodily systems, the organs, the bones, etc. It also has a quiz to test your knowledge. The graphics on it are good, too. However, I was a little disappointed with the second and third discs. The second one is about the skeleton. It's alright, but it doesn't really have a whole lot of information that the first one doesn't have. The third disc is about the eye. It does have a little more information on the eye than the first one, but I found this third disc to be rather boring. The forth disc is a game for kids. In this game, one journeys inside the brain to search for memory chips and such. Overall, this is decent product for what you pay. If you can't find another one that doesn't cost a fortune, then I would recommend it, especially if you have children who will be using it.
