Kai's amazing medicine

Funny and interesting! I wish Adam was my biology teacher.

A hilarious new book from bestselling and record-breaking author Adam Kay.

The old days were a lot of fun if you liked wearing armor or cutting people's heads off, but there was one little problem back then... doctors had no idea how our bodies worked.

It's time to find out why the ancient Egyptians thought the brain was just a pile of old, useless crap that could be tossed in the trash, why teachers forced their students to smoke cigarettes, why hairdressers cut off their customers' legs, and why people were paid to fart.

(Unfortunately, this no longer exists - sorry.) You'll get answers to questions like:
Why were patients gargling urine?
How did a doctor save people's lives using a washing machine, a can of beans, and some old sausages?
What does stink mean? (No, it's not what doctors call "your butt.")

If you're sure you're ready, put on a nose clip (there was a lot of smelly pus back then), put on your rubber boots (there was a lot of poop too), wash your hands (because they certainly weren't) and explore this disgusting and terrifying history of the human body!

Praise for "Kay's Anatomy":
A disgusting and enjoyable look at the human body. Hours of terrifying fun guaranteed!
