Description:
Disease - specifically infectious disease - is what eventually kills the overwhelming majority of us. In fact, it's amazing that it doesn't get us sooner- we fight off millions of disease-causing germs every day.
So how come we're not dead yet? In this lively and accessible book, Idan Ben-Barak tells us why. He explores the immune system and what keeps it running, how germs are destroyed, and why we develop immunities to certain disease-causing agents, and he examines the role of antibiotics and vaccines, and looks at what the future holds for our collective chances of not being dead.
This is entertaining and thoughtful science writing to inspire the student interested in a career in medicine or immunology, or to inform the reader who just wants to understand more about their body while having a laugh along the way.
'This surprisingly ambitious, eminently accessible book brilliantly summarises the essential features of the immune system for a lay audience. The quirky humour masks an underlying authority and competence. The work is right up to date, even incorporating recent Nobel Prize-winning insights into the evolutionarily ancient innate immune system. It is a triumph of popular medical science.'
-Sir Gustav Nossal, former Chairman of the Strategic Advisory Council of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Children's Vaccine Program
'An accessible account of a complex and important topic.'
-Prof. Peter C. Doherty, Nobel Prize winner
'I loved this book. Ben-Barak assumes the reader starts with no knowledge of the immune system but does not make the further assumption

Much too soft. I have to purchase a second pillow in order to raise my head up sufficiently.

LOVE this pillow!!!! I have 2!!!!
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
Well…..I have a love affair with these latex pillows. I purchased 2 of them. I have been allergic to feathers since birth and could only use latex pillows growing up. But, they became very hard to find for many years. I tried all the other kinds of pillows on the market and hated them all!!! “Won’t go flat!”….. whatever! They would go flat almost immediately. Or “Good for side sleepers!”….. NOPE!! I had a stiff neck for a week!! DONE with all of them. So,I finally got on Amazon and found this pillow. Ahhhhhh!! Loved it. Slept like a log! All night! Didn’t go flat!! No stiff neck!!! A winner!!!! Frankly,I don’t care about the cost… yeah…I know….we call have to count our change……including me. I saved to buy this pillow…..both times. AND, I would do it AGAIN!!!! And…proud to do it! So, if you have had it with all of those new prefangled so-called pillows…try this one. I would only avoid it like the plague if you are allergic to latex. Otherwise,I would definitely recommend this pillow! Wherever I go….my pillow goes. Camping, on a trip, to visit relatives…..my pillow will travel!!!!
