  Book Description:
  HP Newquist takes young readers on an engaging tour of the world of blood, fromancient history to modern science—with an occasional trip to the very strange side ofthe most important tissue in our bodies. Oddly enough, scientists began to understandthis fascinating fluid only within the past one hundred years and how its microscopiccomponents nourish the entire body.Whether the tales of vampires, medieval medical practices, and Mayan sacrificialrites captivate or terrify, this comprehensive investigation into blood’s past and presentwill surely enthrall. And if this account is a little bloodcurdling, well, that’s half thefun!
