Omslag till Frank Swain: How to Make a Zombie (ePUB)

Join a notorious pop science punk as he investigates real zombie reports from around the world. It’s terrifying! The search for the means to control the bodies and minds of our fellow humans has been underway for millennia, from the sleep-inducing honeycombs that felled Pompey’s army to the Voodoo potions of Haiti. Now, Frank Swain, the force behind Science Punk, has joined the quest, digging up genuine zombie research: *; dog heads brought back to life without their bodies *; secret agents dosing targets with zombie drugs *; parasites that push their hosts to suicide or sex changes *; the elixir of life hidden in an eighteenth-century painting This mind-bending and entertaining excavation of incredible science is unlike anything you’ve read before.
