Why Do We Get Sick?

The book of science popularizer Anastasia Meshcheryakova, Why Do We Get Sick?, will tell about the amazing world of microscopic beings – about microbes and viruses that surround us everywhere. Some microbes turned out to be useful, while others constantly try to cause harm. Fortunately, our body has a perfect defense system against pathogenic microbes and viruses – immunity. What are bacteria and viruses needed for, how are they structured, how does the body fight them, why do we cough, why does the temperature rise – you will find answers to these and many other questions in our book. For younger school-age children.
