Tiny Battlefields

By: unknown author

When someone has a serious illness, people say they're fighting for their health--or even their lives. This series recognizes that the war against disease doesn't just take place in science labs and doctors' offices but on the tiny battlefields within people's bodies. Each disease and illness is explained in an accessible way, with special attention given to the latest research, treatments, and scientific breakthroughs. The impact of each condition on the world is also highlighted as well as the outlook for eradication.*
