Review by Ben Bullock
This book details various idioms that use parts of the body and categorizes them by body part. It provides sample sentences but unfortunately does not explain how the phrase came to be used as an idiom. Examples in kanji/romaji.
I found this book uninspired, not much more than just a list of the idioms with one example sentence attached.
