This Mortal Coil (A Guardian, Economist & Prospect Book of the Year)

Andrew Doig  | Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
15,730원  | 20230119  | 9781526624390
A Guardian, Economist & Prospect Book of the Year A GUARDIAN, ECONOMIST AND PROSPECT BOOK OF THE YEAR 'A superb book' Simon Sebag Montefiore 'An empowering story of human ingenuity' Economist 'Full of curious facts' The Times Causes of death have changed irrevocably across time. In the course of a few centuries we have gone from a world where disease or violence were likely to strike anyone at any age, and where famine could be just one bad harvest away, to one where in many countries excess food is more of a problem than a lack of it. Why have the reasons we die changed so much? How is it that a century ago people died mainly from infectious disease, while today the leading causes of death in industrialised nations are heart disease and stroke? And what do changing causes of death reveal about how previous generations have lived? University of Manchester Professor Andrew Doig provides an eye-opening portrait of death throughout history, looking at particular causes - from infectious disease to genetic disease, violence to diet - who they affected, and the people who made it possible to overcome them. Along the way we hear about the long and torturous story of the discovery of vitamin C and its role in preventing scurvy; the Irish immigrant who opened the first washhouse for the poor of Liverpool, and in so doing educated the public on the importance of cleanliness in combating disease; and the Church of England curate who, finding his new church equipped with a telephone, started the Samaritans to assist those in emotional distress. This Mortal Coil is a thrilling story of growing medical knowledge and social organisation, of achievement and, looking to the future, of promise.

2022년 타임스, 옵저버 선정 하이라이트 도서 2022년 가디언 선정 올해 최고의 과학 도서 2022년 이코노미스트 선정 올해 최고의 도서 피할 수 없는 죽음, 그러나 그 죽음의 모습은 시대별로 변화해 왔다! 앞으로 우리는 어떻게 살아갈 것인지, 또 어떻게 죽을 것인지에 관한 놀라운 통찰! 살아있는 생명체라면 그 누구도 죽음을 피할 수 없다. 그러나 시간이 흐르며 우리가 죽는 이유는 급격히 변화했다. 과거에는 전염병, 기근, 전쟁 등이 주요 사망 원인이었지만, 오늘날에는 당뇨병, 심장질환 같은 생활 습관병이나 암, 뇌졸중, 치매 등으로 과거와는 완전히 다르다. 과거에는 나이와 관계없이 병이나 폭력으로 죽을 수 있었고, 흉년이 한두 해 이어지면 목숨이 위험했다. 그러나 현대 사회에서는 대부분 국가에서 식량의 부족보다 과다가 더 큰 문제이고, 60세에 사망했다고 하면 오래 살지 못했다고 놀라곤 한다.
