The Anatomy of the Shoulder, Hand, Knee, Ankle, and FootAlthough the shoulder, hand, knee, ankle, and foot are well designed and incredibly versatile, they are prone to damage through overuse, trauma, and aging. In this four-part clinical analysis of human anatomy, a male model, a dissected cadaver, and color diagrams are employed to reveal the intricate structures of these marvels of anatomical engineering—and the conditions that can injure them. 4-part series.
Beauty of AnatomyExperimental, visceral, progressive—from the Venus of Willendorf, thought to be over 27,000 years old, through to Marc Quinn's modern self-portraits rendered in blood, the human body has always been one of art's central themes. But it is only with art and science combined that man has been able to fully understand and illustrate what lies beneath our skin. Tracing the rich history of this intimate relationship, this series explores how the advances of science transformed art, charting man's growing understanding of anatomy through the works that recorded and reflected it. Celebrating the great and the gruesome, the first-class and the foolish, this series offers a considered and illuminating insight into a fascinating subject.

Secrets of BonesBen Garrod, primatologist and master skeleton builder, shares his unique passion for bones. He embarks on a very personal journey through the remarkable and surprising story of how a single, universal body plan—the skeleton—has shaped the animal kingdom. There are over 62,000 species of vertebrate of every size and shape from squirrels to sperm whales and aardvarks to anacondas. Each skeleton differs in small, but critical ways and, in Ben's hands, those differences are decoded to reveal an animal’s complete life story—not only how it moves, where it lives and what it eats, but also its entire evolutionary journey. Secrets of Bones brings the remarkable world of bones to life in a unique way. By conducting fascinating experiments, meeting expert contributors, using integrated graphics and a wealth of archive from the BBC's Natural History Unit, Ben unlocks a fascinating and hidden world we never get to see.

The Immune Response: How the Body Defends ItselfA healthy immune system is so well-organized, so effective against invasion, that its owner can be forgiven for never giving it a second thought. Nevertheless it is a highly complex dimension of human physiology, and when it is overwhelmed, healing is no easy task. This program explores the three principal levels of the immune system—what keeps them functioning in top form and what duties they carry out for the human body. Overviewing the most visible weapons in the first line of immunological defense (skin, sweat, tears, and other physical mechanisms), the video illustrates protein-based responses, cell-based responses, inflammation, clotting, fever, and humoral immunity.
