Moditsina. Encyclopedia Pathologica

This audiobook is the first not-boring popular science book about modern medicine—our ailments, modern medications, and the human body.

Nikita Zhukov, a young neurologist from St. Petersburg, is the author of the ultra-popular project “Encyclopatia” (from “Encyclopedia pathologicae”—a pathological encyclopedia), which is visited by more than 100,000 people a day. His “Modicina” (from “modular medicine”—fashionable medicine) is a critique of traditional misconceptions, contradicting science. Serious men—who, it seems, wouldn’t consider Nikita an authority—discuss his scientific-satirical articles on medical forums, criticize them, praise them, and argue until they’re out of breath.
