Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. I've heard the phrase 'explain it to me like I'm in elementary school' a lot. This book gives that phrase meaning. The author took a complicated subject and made it easy to understand and interesting. Germy Science takes us through the history of humans' use and knowledge of germs. Before people even knew what germs were and how they work, they were using germ warfare by dipping arrows into the blood of dead/sick people and using corpses that died of nasty diseases against their enemies. Then readers learn about early and modern vaccines and new diseases. This is a fascinating read for all future medical workers and any child that wants to know more about diseases and germs. I know some adults that would benefit from reading the book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"This hilarious, thoroughly researched book explains exactly how the microorganisms we know as germs are responsible for so much grossness. Kids will learn all about what germs (a general term for four specific microorganisms) actually are, how we get sick, how the human immune system works, and the best ways to stay healthy. Humans have gone from not knowing germs existed to using them to help lessen the effects of climate change. As readers delve into this history, they'll be fascinated by revolting stories (featuring corpse catapults, shaved chicken butts, and more) from the most influential plagues and pandemics in history. At a time when we've all had to become germ experts, this book is a perfect pick for budding young scientists."-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
