A great,funny,easy to read book introducing human parasites,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fearsome Fauna: A Field Guide to the Creatures That Live in You (Paperback)
This little book introduces the human parasites that commonly infect us all. Not at all dry or written in a complicated or boring fashion, this is definately the book to read if you are at all interested in this subject and are a lay-man. By the same token, as a Medical Microbiologist, I found this book to be a refreshing funny yet factual approach to a subject that is not usually approached like this. Go buy it!!!
