Show Notes
The body is often likened to a machine. But it is much more than that, it works 24 hours a day for decades without for most part, needing regular servicing or the installation of spare parts. It runs on water and a few other organic compounds, is soft and rather lovely, reproduces itself with enthusiasm, feels affection and appreciates the sunset How many machines behave like that?
In this episode we'll take you through the best bits of Bill Bryson -The Body, we'll look at the microbial organ, food, exercise medicine and death. Enjoy!
