Nick Arnold: The disease is throbbing

*Sickness* is a book that offers an entertaining look at germs and diseases. Did you know that, though invisible, as many as 4,000 germs are swarming within 6.4 cm³, constantly looking for an opportunity to enter our bodies? Horrible, right? This book introduces the germs we find dreadful and the diseases they cause in an entertaining way. Furthermore, going beyond simply conveying knowledge, it explores how people have thought about and dealt with germs and diseases, as well as the efforts currently being made to treat them. In addition, it contains a variety of stories about diseases, ranging from the tale of a nurse who drank from a container of diarrhea to a scientist who died from the very disease he was researching.
