Resumen del Editor

A New Scientist Best Popular Science Book 2023

A Next Big Idea Club Must Read 2023

A Stylist Book to Bring You Wisdom in 2023

You may be familiar with the idea of our body's biome - the bacterial fauna that populates our gut and can so profoundly affect our health. In We Are Electric we cross the next frontier of scientific understanding: discover your body's electrome.

Every cell in our bodies - bones, skin, nerves, muscle - has a voltage, like a tiny battery. This bioelectricity is why our brains can send signals to our bodies, why we develop the way we do in the womb, and how our bodies know to heal themselves from injury. When bioelectricity goes awry, illness, deformity and cancer can result. But if we can control or correct this bioelectricity, the implications for our health are remarkable: an undo switch for cancer that could flip malignant cells back into healthy ones; the ability to regenerate cells, organs, even limbs; to slow ageing and so much more.

In We Are Electric, award-winning science writer Sally Adee explores the history of bioelectricity: from Galvani's epic eighteenth-century battle with the inventor of the battery, Alessandro Volta, to the medical charlatans claiming to use electricity to cure pretty much anything, to advances in the field helped along by the unusually massive axons of squid. And finally, she journeys into the future of the discipline, through today's laboratories where we are starting to see real-world medical applications being developed.

The bioelectric revolution starts here.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sally Adee manages that most difficult feat in science writing: taking a subject you didn't know you cared about and making it genuinely fascinating and exciting. The 'ohmigod-that's-so-cool' moments come thick and fast as she brings the science up to date, investigating today's cutting edge and what the future may hold for bio-electric medicine. It's a vast and hugely exciting area of scientific research, shared with infectious enthusiasm, a real depth of knowledge a smart and funny turn of phrase. You'll never think of life in the same way again." (Caroline Williams, author of Move!: The New Science of Body Over Mind)

irritating performance

I couldn't finish. I REALLY wanted to hear this. but the over performed narration drove me nuts. I try to be kind as I am sure I would do a terrible job narrating but I just couldn't listen anymore.....
