Toxic Farts, Brain-Eating Amoebas, Mosquito Assassins & More - Editors of Media Lab Books - Bog

Why does nature try to kill us? In the same way that humans thin the herd when a particular group of animals grow too dense or too expansive for their habitat, nature tries make sure we live in balance with the world as well, which, lets face it, we suck at. Toxic Farts, Brain-Eating Amoebas Mosquito Assassins details hundreds of the scariest, messiest, smelliest, most terrifying ways that nature works to destroy, maim or sicken humans every single day. Each page of this book examines an oddity or two from the natural world that is harmful to humanity. And were not talking about car wrecks, warfare, drug overdoses or parachute accidents.
