Bill Bryson sets off to find out exactly how the human body works and what goes on inside it and soon finds it is infinitely more complex and wondrous, and often more mysterious, than he had ever expected. Travelling from brain to nether regions, and from the start of life to the end, he reveals we are an astonishing story of success. And the history of how we have tried to master our biology and stave off disease is packed with forgotten heroes, astounding anecdotes and extraordinary facts.
Endlessly fascinating, as compulsively readable as it is comprehensive, this must-read owner's manual is Bryson at his very best.
