What are the soles of our feet for? Do animals have soles on their feet? How are the soles of our feet similar and how are they different from those of orangutans and gorillas? This book answers all those questions. The author recommends reading this book barefoot.
Soles of the Feet forms part of the series The Map of my Body, comprised by six titles. The author, Genichiro Yagyu, is Japanese. As a child, he had very bad eyesight and wore round glasses with a white frame that looked like slices of turnip, so at school he used to get called “turnip glasses”. This gave him plenty to think about for a while. When he got over it, he began to worry about his plump buttocks, and later on, about the holes of his nose. After looking at himself and others so much, it was no surprise he would end up making these books to get to know our body a little better and understand how it functions.
