INFECTIOUS - JOHN S TREGONING TASCHENBUCH

The human body is a marvel – but what happens when it comes under attack? A fascinating guide
to why we get sick and how we get better. ‘The perfect gift for the armchair epidemiologist’
Wall Street Journal Nature wants you dead. Not just you  but your children and everyone you
have ever met and everyone they have ever met  in fact  everyone. It wants you to cough and
sneeze and poop yourself into an early grave. It wants your blood vessels to burst and pustules
to explode all over your body. And – until recently – it was really good at doing this… The
subject of infection and how to fight it grows more urgent every day. How do pathogens cause
disease? And what tools can we give our bodies to do battle? Infectious is not only a vital
overview of what goes awry in our bodies  but also a hopeful story of ongoing human ingenuity.
