具体描述
BILL BRYSON's bestselling books include A Walk in the Woods, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, and A Short History of Nearly Everything (which won the Aventis Prize in Britain and the Descartes Prize, the European Union's highest literary award). He was chancellor of Durham University, England's third oldest university, from 2005 to 2011, and is an honorary fellow of Britain's Royal Society.
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.

##充满知识和惊喜，像回到了高中生物课，只是更有趣，不得不赞叹人类的身体构造和医学发展，语言简洁易懂不难懂
评分 评分 评分这就是我想要的科普书！！ 要说这本书厉害在哪里，不是因为它的作者是布莱森，也不是因为它的作者写过《万物简史》。真正的原因是，它是一本脑回路清奇的科普书。可能你不信，它既有科学的严谨性，又有欢脱逗比的画风，关于人体的数据全程高能，可谓雅俗共赏，小白入门佳品。 ...
评分##很多知识都是义务教育期间学过的。最大的感受是mysterious的医学现象太多，没能看到更新的研究成果(连G点的存在都存疑啊?那我曾经的努力找寻是不是白费了啊)。或许目前状况也大同小异吧。只是这位作者对顺产、母乳喂养和产期不能用任何药物有点偏执，读到那里让我有点不快。
评分##不知道为什么Bryson决定在这个题目上写书。不同于旅游、历史、莎士比亚甚至”everything”，人们不大想从非专业人士那里学习人体知识。虽然没发现大错，科技史部分也算可读，但整体读不下去。因为我不想让英语老师教我生物。
