We live surrounded by technology, and yet still inhabit bodies that were designed for the Stone Age. Building on the success of the award-winning, landmark series The Human Body, this 6 part series shows what happens in the body when things go wrong and what can be done to put them right.
This series is designed to show us the beauty and faults that lie within our bodies, and the extraordinary ways that the human body adapts and responds to trauma and the world around us. It shows how pioneers at the cutting edge of modern medicine are harnessing the bodys extraordinary ability to self-repair.
