Description

An engaging "whistle-stop" tour of the human body uses a factory metaphor to depict a CEO who dispatches orders from the brain while teams of busy workers endeavor to keep each "department" running smoothly, from lab workers mixing gastric juices in the stomach to park keepers on the skin who use sweat-gland sprinklers.
