In gloriously gross detail, you'll meet dangerous microscopic invaders like protozoa, fungi, viruses, and foreign bacteria - then see how our bodies work to fight back and defend us against future infections. We get to know the critters behind history's worst diseases. We delve into the biology and mechanisms of infections, diseases, and immunity, and also the incredible effect that technology and medical science have had on humanity's ability to contain and treat disease.

nice amount of detail submitted by camelsamba on June 25, 2019, 9:37pm On the quality continuum in the _Science Comics_ series, this one felt more in line with _Coral Reefs: Cities of the Ocean_ than _Bats: Learning to Fly_ or _Robots and Drones_. Nice amount of detail, spiraled presentation of content, good drawings. There is a fantasty/sci-fi story line that presents people and germs on a similar scale, but it didn't bother me as much as the one in Bats because it didn't pop in and out as much.
