BODY WORLDS

If you live in North America, drop everything to go to this show before it leaves Los Angeles in January of 2005. Actually, I don't know where the exhibition is going next, so it might find its way closer to you. I never thought it would ever come to the USA. I saw it in Belgium and it alone would have been worth the trip.

It is the best opportunity, short of medical school, that you will ever have to get to see inside the human body, every part of it, every muscle, joint, organ, and so on. It is simply the most staggering exposition of the human body ever presented.

Here is also a link to the Körperwelten (Body Worlds) website.
