Publisher's Summary An instant New York Times best seller Named a best book of the year by The Washington Post Longlisted for the Pen E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award "Glorious...You will marvel at the brilliance and vast weirdness of your design." (The Washington Post) Bill Bryson, best-selling 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-listen 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 listenable facts and information. ©2019 Bill Bryson (P)2019 Random House Audio

I enjoyed listening so much I'll listen again for any details I may have missed. Worth getting the Kindle book too.
I used to adore Bryson but his habit of bashing all Americans as fat and lazy starts to grate after a while.
This was so boring I returned it. I usually love Bill Bryson but his voice just droned on and on.
I love his distinct Anglo-Iowan twang. I was worried he'd never read another audio book. Also, the book was good.
Would have been really good if it was narrated by Richard Mathews. A little bit dry.
This is a wonderful book. I have read several Bryson books and enjoyed them all greatly. This is the first one I've listened to, thus I'd never heard Mr. B's voice before. His many years living in England seem to have left him with an accent that is neither fish nor fowl, and comes off as a bit of an affectation even if it is unintentional -- which I'm sure it is. As much as I'm enjoying the book, my head bursting with new and fascinating information, I find the performance a bit hard to get comfy with. That's just me, this is my review and I'm sticking to it!
