Recommendation: Richard has just watched Season 2 of the very funny TV series, " Never Have I Ever" on Netflix. In the words of a reviewer in The Guardian, she "has specialized in tackling the uncomfortable, and at the heart of every book is her desire to explore the places from which we recoil." Mary Roach has been called America's funniest science writer by the Washington Post. This book is a one-of-a-kind educational odyssey that navigates our insides like an explorer. She also wrote, "Stiff" about - you guessed it - dead people, "Gulp" on the digestive tract and "Bonk" where we learn all about sex. Mary Roach, author of Stiff, Fuzz, Bonk and Gulp The Unseen Body is a journey through the human body and across the globe that weaves together medical stories about our insides with a unique perspective on life, culture and the natural world. Previously, we spoke with her about "Grunt", which looks at the surprising science of war. Mary is widely known for her funny, smart, and sometimes gross writing and reporting in a series of books with one-word titles. We also discuss "killer trees" with best-selling science writer, Mary Roach, author of the new book, " Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law". This show is about awkward encounters with bears, mountain lines, gulls, and other wild creatures. Nature is great, but it can also be dangerous if we don’t show proper respect. The line between our “civilized” lives and wild, unpredictable nature seems to have gotten a little thinner lately.
