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.
翻完瞭《人體簡史》。個人認為,除瞭讓人難以評論的譯名和封皮,還是一本值得一讀的書。本來抱著“什麼身體30億歲瞭,肯定沒什麼好看”的想法,翻開之後,卻被紙質和行文吸引,一頁一頁停不下來。 本書原名是The Body: A Guide for Occupants,和簡史沒什麼關係。不過嘛,既然...

評分 評分##嗯,匆匆聽完瞭。其實相對認真聽的是從第十三章的肺開始的。有點想存本紙質版稍微認真的讀一下瞭解一下

評分##補碼。 這本書的音頻有點差,最後還是看完的。 作者很會寫這種題材,沒有什麼太深的內容,就是一些簡單的科普。 抗氧化跟自由基是謊言,但是用來賣貨可是不錯的噱頭。 久坐的危害太大瞭,幸虧都是趴著看書(bushi)。
