The Second History of Man focuses mostly on bacteria and bacterial infections as the foundation, jumping off into Darwin and evolution, gin and tonics and the discovery of the first antibiotic to treat infection (and it wasn’t penicillin), and visiting with those clever chaps who cook up drugs in the lab. We’ll call upon poets and poetry, celebrities like Frank Sinatra, the Rat Pack, and Bobby Darin, the classical music of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, the tragic story of World War II, Anne Frank and the Holocaust....

I’m the sort of person who likes documentaries and interesting facts. Reading this book you definitely learn a lot of interesting facts. It’s like reading a novel and National Geographic all at the same time.

The First History of Man uses infection in general—bacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites, epidemics & pandemics, COVID-19—to lay the foundation for the next five books, narratives and stories that delve deeper into human infectious diseases. This first volume jumps off into accounts of the Big Bang Theory—the real one, but also the sitcom—the origin of the Universe, from atoms to DNA to us and how exactly it happened.

This is a new type of book for me. It's like reading a novel and science article at the same time. I never thought I would read a book that had as much information as a textbook, but without knowing you are learning . You are entertained by the storyline so you don't realize until the end of each chapter that you've retained a lot of new and interesting information. It is a story, but an informative one. Reading this book will bring new and interesting topics into your daily conversations I am sure.
You can also really hear the author, Dr Bershof, in the pages - he is a surgeon turned author and even a bit of a comic- so you can get a glimpse of how his mind works. He is the sort of person who seems to want to get to the root of why and how the world around us came to be. He seeks and answers the questions around us that the general population seems to just accept as fact. Giving information on a broad spectrum of topics that anyone person can follow and enjoy.
