AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
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, 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.

Beautiful leather bag
Color: Brown
The quality of this did not disappoint and seems top notch. I was pleasantly surprised when I got it. I would have thought it cost hundreds of dollars if it had a certain big brand logo on it. The brown is beautiful.

Excellent Leather Quality - Beautiful Handbag
Beautiful handbag. I usually only buy designer handbags of good quality. I am fond of a particular Tory Burch handbag that is no longer made. When I saw this handbag, which is similar in looks to the bag I can no longer find by Tory Burch, I decided to take a chance because it was on sale at an amazingly reasonable price. I am so glad I did. The bag is gorgeous, stitching impeccable, and leather excellent quality. Love all the interior pockets. Lining in side is beautiful. Also, not heavy even with all my stuff in it--do not hesitate to buy this bag. It is a very good find on Amazon.

Great purse!

Beautiful purse! The stitching is great and the leather is so soft. This purse has lots of room while not feeling big and bulky. Will purchase from this brand again.
