Kritik
"The Gastro-Archeologist occupies an informative and engaging middle ground. ... Woodward tackles difficult concepts with relative ease, and The Gastro-Archeologist promises readers a fresh perspective on how eating, digestion, and the diseases they engender came about-and the ways in which we can begin to tackle them. Woodward's unique take encourages us to question and reinterpret the ways we view the gastrointestinal system, challenging us to look beyond the superficial, step back, and take in the bigger picture." (Jennifer Thorley,The Lancet, Vol. 6, August, 2021)mehr
