Rezension zu „The Naked Man “
"This is a book that every man should read. Morris, with a breathtaking sweep across millennia, first pains an arching overview of civilised society's development. Then, in a style both easy to read and free of pomposity, he examines the male body from hair to feet... But the thrilling thrust of the book is in the compelling conviction with which he orchestrates the human response to the mysterious thud of the rhythm of life" Sunday Express "[An] irresistible blend of hard science and populism" Sunday Telegraph "Witty, informative and closely argued... A treasure trove of such humorous anecdotes, but it has a scholarly tone and a serious purpose" Daily Mail "Persuasive, and often fascinating" Sunday Times "Intriguing" Big Issue
