Biology is the science of life. It involves the study of plants, animals and people - alive or dead. This book shows how, through the ages, biologists carried out gruesome tests and gory experiments. You can read how the ancient Egyptians made their mummies, how maggots helped solve a great mystery, and why a famous biologist gave a young boy a deadly disease on purpose!
