This week on MonsterTalk, we interview Harvard medical doctor Steven Schlozman, author of The Zombie Autopsies and get inside the walking dead to discuss a plausible mechanism for the zombie apocalypse. It took a lot of guts, but in this episode we discuss:
-
How did a doctor become
interested in zombies? -
What can zombies teach us
about neurology? -
Which is scarier:
infection or cannibalism? - Why don’t zombies have sex?
- What’s the best way to slice a brain?
- What do brains taste like?
- Plus much, much more!
Suggested Reading
(for younger MonsterTalk fans)
- The Zombies Guide to the Human Body
-
A great book for kids that teaches
anatomy with zombies.
