4.0 out of 5 stars `WELCOME TO THE WORLD'S FIRST BODY OWNER'S HANDBOOK!', 26 Mar 2007
By A B CeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
`You and I and everyone on Planet Earth have something in common. Each of us owns an incredible walking, talking machine.
Know what I mean?
It's the human body!
That's right - each one of us is a `human body owner'!
And that's where our problems begin.....

You see, the human body needs lots of looking after, but there's no user guide to show us what to do.
No wonder body problems cause such grief! Wouldn't it be brilliant if there was a helpful handbook with advice on basic body repairs and avoiding body breakdowns?
Well, now there is. And guess what? You're actually reading it!
So, WELCOME TO THE WORLD'S FIRST BODY OWNER'S HANDBOOK!'

A colourful, humorous cover opens to 160 pages, split over 15 chapters:-

Introduction
Body bits for beginners
The body-bit checklist
Automatic body features
Body care for body owners
Boosting your body
Automatic body-repair systems
Body breakdowns and recovery
Brand-new bodies
A final note to body owners

Written in a variety of fonts in the usual Nick Arnold entertaining style.
Black and white illustrations, from Tony de Saulles, throughout as well as trouble-shooting tips, terrific tests and curious quizzes.
Science has never been so horrible!'
