Samenvatting

In this fascinating journey through the human body and across the globe, Dr Reisman weaves together stories about our insides with a unique perspective on life, culture, and the natural world.

'The hidden worlds inside us deserve as much attention and fascination as the external world. After all, the true story of the body -- of the lives we live in these bodies -- is the story of both.'

Praise for The Unseen Body:

'An elegant, elegiac, and deeply enjoyable meander through human anatomy . . . the images Reisman conjures will linger long after you've devoured his delightful prose.'
Nicola Twilley,
co-author of Until Proven Safe and co-host of Gastropod podcast

'Terrific, memorable, original, and full of information that informs one's understanding not only of the body but also of what has stopped us from knowing more . . . readers will know Jonathan Reisman as an individual whose humility and empathy are as impressive as his adventurous, travel-hungry spirit.'
Kenneth S. Brecher,
cultural anthropologist and author of Too Sad to Sing

'An Alexander von Humboldt of the human body, Reisman's comparisons give us an ingenious perspective from which to understand the ways our internal organs function alone and together. I highly recommend this book to everyone interested in understanding and appreciating the marvels of the human body.'
Warren Zapol, M.D.,
professor of anesthesiology at Harvard Medical School, Antarctic researcher and inventor
