Fascinating details on everyday fluids! In The Curious Science of Bodily Fluids, readers meet, among others, a brain researcher, a urologist and a chef. They share stories and personal experiences, which together with the latest from the world of research offer startling, new knowledge about body fluids. Some of the revelations include:

The water in the brain washes away rubbish while you sleep. The mucus in the cervix helps healthy sperm to reach the egg. Tiny drops of snot can float in the air for a full ten minutes after a strong sneeze. The blood of young people may contain a source of eternal life. And many more!

The perfect gift for those interested in popular science!
