About this book
The Gross Science of Lice and Other Parasites explores the world of parasites, including lice, worms, and microbes that live on human skin, in hair, under the skin, and inside the body. The book examines how these organisms evolved to live inside other creatures, their life cycles, and the ways they can harm their hosts. Through scientific explanations and gross facts, readers learn about the impact parasites have had on human history and health.
