intriguing!!!!

This book is very intriguing in so many ways. It takes you step by step through time, and how beliefs have had a wide range. First-people believed blood was life, as for nowadays people understand that there, OF COURSE, is a conclusion that cannot be withdrawn--- Blood is not life. But, Isaac Asimov explains to you thoroughly that blood is quite important and leads you to the conclusion that saying , "Blood is LIFE," would not at all be such a shameful thing to say. Sooooo, go ahead and try it. Right now, try it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
