Meredith’s Reviews > The Body: A Guide for Occupants > Status Update

This is a book with pretty delightful trivia and curiosities about the body.

My favorite story so far was about a guy who accidentally swallowed a gold coin and who, after days of capturing the concern and advice of Britain for dislodging it, did so. And this introduced a section on the human mouth, risks of choking, the Heimlich maneuver, and the thorough work on choking done by Dr. Chevalier Quixote Jackson.
