In this amusing and brilliantly conceived book, Michael Sims introduces you to your body. Moving from head to toe, Sims blends cultural history with evolutionary theory to produce a wonderfully original narrative in which he analyzes the visible parts of the body. In this fascinating brew of science and storytelling, readers encounter not only accessible explanations of the mechanics of their anatomy, but also the layers of mythology, religious lore, history, Darwinian theory, and popular culture that have helped to shape our understanding of any given body part. A titillating and unique book, Adam’s Navel is learned and entertaining, a marvelous lens through which to study the form we all inhabit—but may not really understand.

When the geological survey aircraft ‘Yankey Whisky’ was shot down by terrorist in Papua New Guinea, its three man crew survived the crash but were captured by the Indonesian terrorist who had shot them down. Leader of the group, a Chinese National named General Chan put the airmen through a series of horrifying events. Later, they managed to escape with the help of Chan`s `lady friend’ and found a safe haven within the walls of a leper colony. A Russian surveillance ship, anchored off Papua send in a team of Geologists to plunder the air-crafts electronic Geological Survey Equipment, which was highly secret at that time, but General Chan gets there sooner and a skirmish between the two ends with the Yankey Whisky going up in flames. Back home in London, after a party given by a wealthy Arab oil baron, the daughter of Bob Sastry, Captain of the `Yankey Whisky’ suddenly goes missing. Mandy has been kidnapped and taken to the Middle Eastern Town of Marrakech, and it seems is headed for a life of horror inside an Arabian harem.

All is not lost, and an unusual ending is as always inevitable.
