Beskrivelse
After wading into the grossest animal pee, poop, and vomit humans have consumed in Dung for Dinner, Christine Virnig dives back into the muck with an equally humorous and informative exploration of the most revolting jobs throughout history. From the ancient Egyptian mummy makers who removed brains by shoving iron hooks up peoples’ noses, to the nineteenthth-century Toshers who hunted for treasure deep in the London sewers, to modern-day forensic entomologists who study the fly eggs, maggots, and other creepy crawlies that live on - and crawl through - human corpses, readers will learn about jobs that deal with poop, pee, blood, medicine, and dead bodies.Combining history, science, and a slew of fascinating facts, it’s nonfiction with real kid appeal.
