An ABC science book for the strange and unusual. This stomach turning yet fascinating gallery will fill your curious cup right up. Ever wonder what a Pyogenic Granuloma or Arteriosclerosis looks like? I had no clue until I popped opened this title. The fragility and strength of the human body is highlighted within these pages and makes for an excellent look into our physical selves.
