By Dr. Alice Roberts

Our bones are more than just a rigid framework that supports our bodies. They are a living, dynamic tissue that plays a vital role in our overall health and well-being. In her fascinating new book, Skeleton Keys, Dr. Alice Roberts takes us on a journey into the hidden world of bone biology, revealing the remarkable secrets that lie beneath our skin.

Roberts begins by exploring the intricate architecture of bone. She shows us how bones are made up of a complex network of cells and proteins that are constantly being remodeled and repaired. This process of bone remodeling is essential for maintaining bone health and preventing osteoporosis, a condition that causes bones to become weak and brittle.

Roberts also delves into the remarkable regenerative abilities of bone. She tells the stories of individuals who have suffered severe bone injuries or diseases, only to have their bones regenerate and heal completely. This research has led to the development of new treatments for bone injuries and diseases, and holds promise for the future of regenerative medicine.

Skeleton Keys is not just a scientific exploration of bone biology. It is also a personal journey for Roberts, who has a deep fascination with the human body. She shares her own experiences with bone injuries and diseases, and her insights into the power of the human body to heal itself.

Written in Roberts' engaging and accessible style, Skeleton Keys is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the human body, health, and science. It is a book that will change the way you think about your bones, and your body as a whole.
