畅销书《万物简史》作者比尔·布莱森（Bill Bryson）新作

这次，比尔·布莱森带我们领略人类奇妙的身体构造。新书依然延续比尔的写作风格，语言清晰明了，笔法幽默风趣，叫人上瘾不可自拔。

比尔·布莱森将带领我们探索人体，看看它是如何运作的，出色的自愈能力，以及生病的模样。本书充满干货和知识点（当你开始读这本书时，你的身体就制造了一百万个红血球）和极具魅力的布莱森式奇闻。更深入地了解生命的奥妙，特别是你自身。正如比尔·布莱森（Bill Bryson）所写，“我们通过这具血肉之躯来传递我们的存在，却几乎完全认为这是理所当然的。”本书引用大量你没想过的、奇妙的事实例子，使读者读起来津津有味，唤醒人们对生命的新感悟，治愈这种理所当然的冷漠。

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. As addictive as it is comprehensive, this is Bryson at his very best, a must-read owner's manual for everybody.

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 Bryson-esque

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.
