War is a dangerous enterprise. But as bestselling author Mary Roach reveals in her latest captivating scientific exploration, behind every threat to soldiers in the field-from bullets, burns, and explosions to panic, exhaustion, and noise-is a team of scientists doing all they can to ensure their survival. With her trademark blend of wit and humor, Roach takes readers along as she visits trainings where amputee actors help prepare Marine Corps medics for the gore of combat wounds, learns about how diarrhea can be a threat to national security and zippers fatal to snipers, samples caffeinated meat and sniffs a stink bomb, and much more.
