Get Well Soon: History's Worst Plagues and the Heroes Who Fought Them - Jennifer Wright

I'm just about to start the last Chapter on Polio.

 

So, these are some of the things I have noticed so far: 

 

1. I liked the second half of the book better than the first, even tho the discussions are not even trying to explore the causes of different diseases. Not in a depth or scientific way, anyway. I want to say that that ship has sailed, but hoestly I don't think that particular ship was ever launched.

 

2. There are some scary stories about medical conditions in this book - not epidemics(!), this book is really not about epidemics at all - but I appreciate Wright's style in that I needed that uplifting reference to Fraggle Rock at the end of the chapter on lobotomies. That was one scary chapter.

Warning: There's some language here.

A friend shared this with me and I simply had to return the favor. I've never seen this before...though I've watched it at least twice now! I do hope you all enjoy this as much as I did.

 

Happy Reading, y'all!

Couldn't resist posting another Sherlock/Irene video.  Be warned, spoilers for "A Scandal in Belgravia."
