Customer Reviews

Human trivia

I love obscure information and trivia, and this book is just loaded with all sorts of interesting things about humans. I loved it.

One of the finest pieces of writing known to man

This book is written in the most amazing way so as to not only fill the reader's mind with amazing information concerning the wonderfuly evolved machine that is the human body, but also entertain. For all its wonderous facts and statistics, it is also written in such a personal manner so as to be actually touching. The writer clearly has a fine understanding of Biology, and uses this understanding to dazzle me each time I read it. If you are lucky enough to find this book, don't lend it to anyone. :-)

I'm unable to put this down.

I wish I could find another copy of this... My Exwife snagged my book in our divorce so now I have to try to find a new one :( If you can help please email me!!! Please!!
