A revolutionary way of understanding quantum physics frees us from a century of absurdities and illusions and returns us to a universe that makes sense

One hundred billion people have lived on earth. Unfortunately, this book would be too heavy if it talked about them all, so it's about ten of them.You'll meet Amelia Earhart, who flew across a huge ocean in a tiny plane, back in the days when planes were basically made out of old bits of wood (and worst of all, they didn't have in-flight movies) and Thomas Edison, who invented light bulbs and movie cameras (but only went to school until he was twelve). Plus a whole bunch more other brilliant people with brilliant brains who woke up one day and thought 'Oh, I've got an idea... !' and changed the world forever

The first-ever picture book from Adam Kay and Henry Paker.This is the hilarious (and admittedly a tiny bit gross) tale of Amy, a small piece of sweetcorn who is eaten by Noah, a medium-sized boy. The story follows Amy on her funny, gooey and anatomically-accurate adventure through the human body as she discovers lots of facts about digestion.

Tahle úžasně odporná učebnice biologie vás zaručeně bude bavit!Nechutné a neuvěřitelně vtipné dějiny lidského těla v podání autora bestselleru Anatomie od Adama.Kdysi dávno to byla fakt zábava, tedy pokud rádi nosíte kroužkovou zbroj nebo sekáte hlavy, jenže kdysi dávno měli taky takový MALINKATÝ PROBLÉMEČEK… doktoři tehdy vůbec netušili, jak funguje lidské tělo.Je na čase zjistit, proč si staří Egypťané mysleli, že mozek je jen nanicovatá nádivka lebky, která by se klidně dala vyhodit do popelnice, proč učitelé nutili své žáky kouřit cigarety, proč holiči svým zákazníkům uřezávali nohy a proč se dřív platilo za prdění. (Je mi to líto, ale dneska už vám za to nikdo nezaplatí.)Dostanete odpovědi na otázky, které by vás ani nenapadly, jako třeba:Proč pacienti kloktali čůrání?Jak doktor zachránil životy pomocí pračky, plechovky od fazolí a páru starých párků?Čemu se říkalo velký puch? (Ne, nebojte, doktoři tak neříkají vašemu zadku.)Jestli jste připravení, dejte si kolíček na nos (v těch dobách totiž byla všude spousta smradlavého hnisu), vezměte si holínky (také tam bylo hodně hovínek, co si budeme říkat), umyjte si ruce (protože oni si je tenkrát nemyli a jak dopadli!) a pojďte objevovat nechutné a příšerné dějiny lidského těla!

"Auf dieser verrückten Entdeckungsreise zurück in die Vergangenheit, erfahren die Kinder Spannendes und unglaublich Widerliches über den menschlichen Körper und die Entwicklung der Medizin: Warum bringen uns manche Infektionen für immer zum Lachen? Warum hackten Frisöre ihren Kunden die Beine ab? Warum transplantierten Ärzte ihren Patienten Frosch-Haut?" (www.emf-verlag.de)

Nowa okropnie śmieszna książka Adama Kaya, autora bestsellerowej Twojej anatomii! Dawno, dawno temu było całkiem zabawnie, o ile ktoś lubił nosić kolczugę albo ścinać ludziom głowy. Istniał tylko jeden malutki problem lekarze nie mieli bladego pojęcia, w jaki sposób funkcjonuje ludzkie ciało. Dlatego w przeszłości usta płukano moczem, fryzjerzy odcinali swoim klientom kończyny, a ludziom płacono za puszczanie bąków (niestety, ta oferta już nie jest aktualna). Zatkaj więc nos klamerką (bo zapachy, na które się natkniesz, mogą cię zwalić z nóg) i zacznij odkrywać przerażająco prawdziwą historię grzebania w ludzkim ciele. Oto... Bardzo niesamowita medycyna! Ta prześmieszna książka sprawi, że przybędzie nam młodych lekarzy. Sunday Express Kolejna przezabawna książka mojego ulubionego autora. Adam Kay, autor bestsellera Twoja anatomia

Jest o wysadzeniu w powietrze całego swojego życia i o zszywaniu go na nowo. Książka Będzie bolało okazała się fenomenem wydawniczym stulecia. Znalazła miliony czytelników, spośród których co najmniej pięćdziesięciu uznało ją za genialną. Na jej podstawie nakręcono serial telewizyjny. Jest jednak zaledwie częścią pewnej dłuższej, skomplikowanej historii Oto i ona! Nielekarz to prześmieszna, przejmująca i szokująca opowieść o tym, co dzieje się, gdy doświadczony lekarz postanawia odwiesić stetoskop na kołek, ale medycyna nie chce dać mu spokoju. To zaskakujące epizody z życia w szpitalnych murach i poza nimi spisane przez jednego z najbardziej utalentowanych brytyjskich autorów. To niepowtarzalna okazja, by przenieść się do czasów dawnej pracy Adama Kaya i zrozumieć, dlaczego rany, jakie po sobie pozostawiła, tak długo się goją. To humor ostry jak skalpel i szczerość, która chwyta za serce. Taki właśnie jest Nielekarz.

THE NO. 1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER - NOW INCLUDING BRAND NEW MATERIAL THIS IS GOING TO HURT was the bestselling non-fiction book of the century - a frank, funny and furious look at the brutal realities of life in the NHS. But it was only part of Adam Kay's story. With his stethoscope now hung up, Adam shares more suture-splitting anecdotes from both on and off the wards. From the hilarious to the profoundly moving, from the first days of medical school to life after the NHS, UNDOCTORED is an astonishing portrait of an extraordinary life, from one of Britain's finest - and funniest - storytellers.

Adam Kay's secret diary from his time as a junior doctor This is Going to Hurt was the publishing phenomenon of the century. It has been read by millions, translated into 37 languages, and adapted into a major BBC television series. But that was only part of the story. Now, Adam Kay returns and will once again have you in stitches in his painfully funny and startlingly powerful follow-up, Undoctored: The Story of a Medic Who Ran out of Patients. In his most honest and incisive book yet, he reflects on what's happened since hanging up his scrubs and examines a life inextricably bound up with medicine. Battered and bruised from his time on the NHS frontline, Kay looks back, moves forwards and opens up some old wounds. Hilarious and heartbreaking, horrifying and humbling, Undoctored is the astonishing portrait of a life by one of Britain's best-loved storytellers.

Pierwsza książka dla młodych czytelników napisana przez autora głośnych bestsellerów „Będzie bolało“ i „Świąteczny dyżur“ Czy zastanawiasz się czasem, jak działa twoje ciało? Ludzkie ciało bywa niesamowite, fascynujące i… bardzo dziwne. Twoje ciało jest dziwne. Moje ciało jest dziwne. A ciało twojego nauczyciela matematyki jest jeszcze dziwniejsze. Ta książka odpowiada na ważne pytania, takie jak: • Czy jedzenie kóz z nosa jest bezpieczne? • Ile czasu tracisz, siedząc w toalecie? • Dlaczego w twoich rzęsach mieszkają obleśne żyjątka? (Bardzo mi przykro, ale to prawda). Usiądź wygodnie, załóż gumowe rękawiczki i pozwól się zabrać w smrodliwą i lepką podróż po twoich wnętrznościach. Oto „Twoja anatomia “! ( To takie mądre słowo, które oznacza budowę ciała. Widzisz, już wiesz coś nowego!)

"Mein verrückter Körper" ist das erste Kindersachbuch des studierten Arztes und Comedians A. Kay. Das über 400 Seiten starke Taschenbuch wirkt beinahe wie ein Comic-Roman, das Sachwissen weitestgehend in umfangreichen Fließtexten vermittelt. Optische Auflockerung verschaffen hervorgehobene Überschriften und die über 300 witzigen, schwarz-weißen Comic-Illustrationen, die das Gelesene nachvollziehbar veranschaulichen. Dank Glossar und Register ist Nachschlagen gut möglich. Neben Aufbau und Funktion des menschlichen Körpers (u.a. Organe, Fortpflanzung, Tod) ist viel spannendes Zusatzwissen enthalten (z.B. Coronavirus). Jedes Kapitel endet mit der Beantwortung typischer Kinderfragen und die Kategorie "Heiß oder Scheiß?" klärt Körper-Mythen auf. Der Autor hat einen flotten Schreibstil, schweift jedoch nicht selten ab, streut dabei unzählige gewollt lustige Bemerkungen, aber auch Kraftausdrücke (Kacke, Idioten, etc.) ein, um die Zielgruppe bei Laune zu halten. Bei Bedarf an außergewöhnlichem Schmökerstoff möglich

The olden days were pretty fun if you liked wearing chainmail or chopping people's heads off but there was one tiny little problem back then, doctors didn't have the slightest clue about how our bodies worked. It's time to find out why Ancient Egyptians thought the brain was just a useless load of old stuffing that might as well be chucked in the bin, why teachers forced their pupils to smoke cigarettes, why hairdressers would cut off their customers legs, and why people used to get paid for farting. (Unfortunately that's no longer a thing, sorry.) You'll get answers to questions like: Why did patients gargle with wee? How did a doctor save people's lives using a washing machine, a can of beans and some old sausages? What was the great stink? (No, it's not what doctors call your bum)

Quick Read edition of the million copy bestselling This is Going to Hurt, the often hilarious, at times horrifying and occasionally heartbreaking diaries of a former junior doctor.

Do you ever think about your body and how it all works? Like really properly think about it? The human body is extraordinary and fascinating and, well... pretty weird. Yours is weird, mine is weird, your maths teacher's is even weirder. This book is going to tell you what's actually going on in there, and answer the really important questions, like- Are bogeys safe to eat? Look, if your nose is going to all that effort of creating a snack, the least we can do is check out its nutritional value. (Yes, they're safe. Chew away!) And . . . How much of your life will you spend on the toilet? About a year - so bring a good book. (I recommend this one.) So sit back, relax, put on some rubber gloves, and let a doctor take you on a poo- and puke-filled tour of your insides. Welcome to Kay's Anatomy*. *a fancy word for your body. See, you're learning already.
