Is it possible to overcome old age? Are cancer and diabetes really more dangerous than any infection today? And why haven't scientists come up with one pill for all diseases yet?John S. Tregoning, professor of vaccine immunology at Imperial College London and author of more than 70 academic papers exploring fundamental medical issues, including aging, protection from infection, and death, is looking for answers to these questions. In his book, he explains the nature of the underlying diseases in an accessible way. Tregoning personally experiences "useful" and "harmful" treatment methods and compares the results of his experiments with the scientific base. The author boldly goes beyond the usual – his subtle humor and easy manner of narration will help even a beginner to understand the complexities of medicine.
