Brilliantly comprehensive and highly readable... The first ever
book to track both the history of allergies and the state of modern
allergy science
*Observer*
MacPhail's passion for her subject is evident as she brings to life
and personalises a phenomenally complex field
*Sunday Times*
Important and deeply researched... MacPhail's compassionate
insights into the problem make for engrossing reading
*Wall Street Journal*
An exhaustive exploration of the science of allergies
*New Statesman*
A fascinating account that most of us (sniffle sniffle) will find
of compelling interest, and also a powerful reminder that what we
do to the world around us eventually affects the world inside
us
*Bill McKibben*
Allergic is the definitive biography of allergies. This accessible,
comprehensive and troubling portrait should be read by all who
suffer and those who care about them, which, as MacPhail so
carefully documents, is such an astounding number that it includes
almost all of us
*Michael Moss, author of SALT SUGAR FAT and HOOKED*
Allergic is just the sort of thoughtful, comprehensible and
comprehensive book we urgently need to understand how rapidly
changing modern environments are interacting with our ancient
immune systems to cause a frightening explosion in allergies
*Daniel Lieberman*
An astute, empathetic, and wonderfully informative investigation.
Theresa MacPhail makes a persuasive case that cooperation-with each
other, and with our internal ecosystems-is the key to relief
*Michelle Nijhuis, author of BELOVED BEASTS: FIGHTING FOR LIFE IN
AN AGE OF EXTINCTION*
Comprehensively researched, deftly told, and radiating both
intellect and passion, Allergic is essential reading for anyone
interested in our bodies and our world. I am grateful to have this
book to share with my allergy patients
*Kari Nadeau, Director of the Sean N. Parker Center for Allergy and
Asthma Research at Stanford University*
In Allergic MacPhail seeks to understand the effect allergies have
on us individually and socially, as well as to explore the latest
ideas for treatments and therapies… MacPhail does a marvellous job
of conveying that complexity to the general reader
