In this fascinating odyssey through our insides, Dr. Jonathan Reisman-physician, adventurer, and naturalist-navigates the human body like an explorer discovering a new world. With a unique perspective shaped by his travels, Reisman unveils surprising connections between our anatomy and the natural environment.
From revealing how understanding mountain watersheds helps diagnose heart attacks to discovering that the body is primarily composed of mucus, not water, Reisman's globetrotting offers a fresh lens on our inner workings. His offbeat adventures lead to captivating medical insights: a trek in the Alaskan Arctic proves fat is more hero than villain; a Himalayan journey uncovers the boundary between brain and mind; and a sheep's head meal in Iceland yields a lesson in empathy.
Through vivid storytelling and a gift for demystifying science, The Unseen Body illustrates how our organs are inextricably intertwined-an internal ecosystem reflecting the natural world. Reisman's wholly original perspective offers a moving glimpse into the human body's inner workings, reframing how we understand our own health and the remarkable wonders within us.
