Recently, I conducted a spring cleaning of my personal library & found a number of interesting books which I have totally forgotten about. This is one of those books. Here, in this one amazing volume, are answers to those puzzles about the human body. The author, a medical doctor by training, explains through plain language the sometimes funny, sometimes surprising & always uncommon organic reasons for our most common bodily sensations. For example, as reflected in the book title, Why doesn't my funny bone make me laugh? It's a witty & yet informative book. It illuminates other dark mysteries about the ice cream headache, sore throats, heartburn, butterflies, goosebumps, tickles, among many other unexplored bodily sensations. Also whimsically illustrated. Have fun with this book, but please, don't use it for diagnostic purposes. If you feel concerned about a funny feeling you're having, consult a doctor immediately!
