O jeito que ele explica as coisas conseguem ser engraçadas e muito fáceis de entender, e os desenhos também ajudam muito

I feel like I'm a college-educated immunologist ready to start diagnosing people right away (I'm joking). But Dettmer does an amazing job of simplifying incredibly complex biological processes—it's nonfiction but it reads as easily as any fiction book would.

A comprehensive overview of the human immune system, with beautiful graphics that distills the essence of how our bodies work to keep us alive in a world full of hostile organisms, as well as the ways it can fail to do so. Dettmer favors telling a tractable story but is also very clear about when things are being simplified. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to everyone, though some of the language and imagery may not be appropriate for children younger than high school or so.
