Basher Science

Autor Dan Green Ilustrat de Simon Basher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 sep 2023

Learn about the amazing research that is revolutionizing biology, from advances in medicine to genetic engineering.

- Is there an animal that can survive in outer space?
- How long does a face transplant take?
- Can we 3D print new organs?

Meet the world's toughest bacterium and a biologically immortal flatworm whilst learning about epigenetics, superbugs, nanomedicine and cloning. Extreme Biology is a compelling guide to developments at the very forefront of science - a must-read for anyone wishing to understand, and engage with, modern biology.

Basher's unique illustrations combine with chatty, first-person text by expert author Dan Green to hook even the most reluctant readers and help them to understand the science behind the headlines. This is the ideal companion to Basher Science: Biology and other titles in the Basher Science series.

Recenzii

School Library JournalThis clever, well-illustrated romp doesn't mince words, but gives students the straight truth about even the most unpleasant functions of the human body. The colorful cartoons . . . do help get the key concepts across. The book is divided into sections based on systems, so kids could skip to just what they are interested in or browse through the whole book. This is a fun introduction to how the human body works. SimplyScience Blog (Books and easy science lessons)The appeal of this book is that it can be read straight through or read out of order, section by section. It is easy to follow and understand and presents information aimed at the middle grade kids who are being introduced to the body and its functions. This is a fun one and reveals the body processes in more like an action film than a science text. Library Media ConnectionThe uninhibited and humorous style will attract this age group and reluctant readers. Presented in first person, the text makes its points with jokes and wordplay, but it also provides lots of information. Some amazing statistics show up at the bottom of each page. . . . This book would make good supplemental material in science or health classes, especially for those students who think that science is boring.

Readers will come away with a better understanding of the fundamental components of their bodies. . . . [A] powerful little book.

It is quite easy to imagine very young children becoming entranced by the
