NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Bill Bryson, bestselling author of A Short History of Nearly Everything, takes us on a head-to-toe tour of the marvel that is the human body-with a new afterword for this edition.Bill Bryson once again proves himself to be an incomparable companion as he guides us through the human body-how it functions, its remarkable ability to heal itself, and (unfortunately) the ways it can fail. Full of extraordinary facts (your body made a million red blood cells since you started reading this) and irresistible Brysonesque anecdotes, The Body will lead you to a deeper understanding of the miracle that is life in general and you in particular.As Bill Bryson writes, “We pass our existence within this wobble of flesh and yet take it almost entirely for granted.”The Body will cure that indifference with generous doses of wondrous, compulsively readable facts and information. As addictive as it is comprehensive, this is Bryson at his very best, a must-read owner’s manual for every body.

Astonishing. . . . You will marvel at the brilliance and vast weirdness of your design.-The Washington Post Delightful . . . reveals the thousands of rarely acknowledged tasks our body takes care of as we go about our day. . . . Informative, entertaining and often gross (kissing, according to one study, transfers up to one billion bacteria from one mouth to another, along with 0.2 micrograms of food bits). . . . Bryson, who gives off a Cronkite-like trustworthy vibe, is good at allaying fears and busting myths.”-The New York Times Book Review Bryson is a master explainer, with a gift for the pithy simile and all-encompassing metaphor. . . . Mr. Bryson’s account is enlivened by his excellent command of the history of medicine. . . . Brisk, provocative and entertaining throughout.-The Wall Street Journal Fascinating.-NPR Bryson launches himself into the wilderness of the human anatomy armed with his characteristic thoroughness and wit. . . .This book is full of such arresting factoids and, like a douser hunting water, Bryson is adept at finding the bizarre and the arcane in his subject matter. . . . Amazing.-USA Today A witty, informative immersion. . . .The Body-a delightful, anecdote-propelled read-proves one of his most ambitious yet, as he leads us on a head-to-toe tour of a physique that’s terra incognita to many of us. . . . Playful, lucid. . . . [Bryson] cover[s] a remarkably large swathe of human corporeal and cerebral experience.-The Boston Globe A directory of wonders. . . . Extraordinary. . . . A tour of the minuscule; it aims to do for the human body what hisA Short History of Nearly Everything did for science. . . . Wry, companionable, avuncular and always lucid . . . [The Body] could stand as an ultimate prescription for life.-The Guardian A delightful tour guide. . . . Brysons stroll through human anatomy, physiology, evolution, and illness (diabetes, cancer, infections) is instructive, accessible, and entertaining. -Booklist, starred review Amusingly informative.-Forbes A pleasing, entertaining sojourn into the realm of what makes us tick.-Kirkus Reviews About the Author BILL BRYSONs bestselling books includeA Walk in the Woods,The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, andA Short History of Nearly Everything (which won the Aventis Prize in Britain and the Descartes Prize, the European Unions highest literary award).
