Produktbeschreibung
In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist's scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. The First History of Man uses infection in general-bacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites, epidemics & pandemics, COVID-19-to lay the foundation for the next five books, narratives and stories that delve deeper into human infectious diseases. This first volume jumps off into accounts of the Big Bang Theory-the real one, but also the sitcom-the origin of the Universe, from atoms to DNA to us and how exactly it happened. In our journey we'll explore Einstein and Newton who were probably aliens (he said jokingly), the Roman Empire, British history and all those wives of King Henry VIII, the why and how of the Protestant Reformation, why Pluto lost its planet status in our solar system, what exactly is the sweet spot of a solar system, all the while digging up some archeology, and even paying a visit with Dr. Livingstone, I presume. We'll trudge from the top of Everest, the highest point on Earth, to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the lowest point on Earth, and LUA in between, the Last Universal Ancestor that gave rise to all life on Earth. Topics covered include history, Biography, Science, Health, Infection, Thriller, Suspense, Disease, American history, Ancient history, European history, Astronomy, Art, Music, Celebrities, Cosmos, Climate change, Global warming, Weather, Epidemic, Galaxy, Geography, Humor, War, Mystery, Movies, Money, Mythology, Nature, Philosophy, Memoir, Ebook, Rich & Famous, Vaccines, Universe, Religion, Mental health, Travel book, New release, Best sellers, World history, Sports, Military, LGBTQ+, Human body, Aging, Ecology, Audiobook, and Hollywood.
