Probe the power of prosthetics! If you’ve ever wondered how artificial limbs are made, you can’t miss this astounding edition of ASK Magazine, focusing on bionic body parts.

Then, get a sneak-peek of what technology can bring us in the future of prosthetic body parts, including robotic hands and fake skin that can feel!
