PRODUCT DETAILS
A learning series that brings you the finest in educational programming with a fast-paced format that makes learning fun!

In the program about the nervous system, viewers explore the five senses: our eyes, which transform shades of light into the phenomenon of sight; our ears, which convert variations in air pressure into hearing; our nerve endings, which translate contact to touch; our tongues and noses which give us taste and smell; plus, the sixth sense – balance – is also explained. The fascinating third part in the series examines the incredible “machine,” from simple cells, to DNA, the body’s building blocks of life, to the major systems and organs. Set of three DVDs with a total running time of 150 minutes. Grade 6 and up. Copyright 2001.
