Genetics for Breakfast. Scientific Life Hacks for Everyday Life

«I want to become a scientist», — says the child, surely thinking about how they will create things out of thin air, search for radioactive spiders in their lab, or invent shooting laser beams. However, the author of this book... realized he would pursue science when, as a child, he studied a meat grinder and stuck his finger in it: he became very curious about how the human body works and — especially — how to stop bleeding.
With this book, Martin Moder infects the reader with a love for science, experiments, and facts. He involves genetics, biology, and medicine in solving everyday problems and shares unusual yet effective life hacks. You will learn how much bread to eat to achieve a slight state of intoxication, how to beat a cold with hugs, and how old socks can save a life.
