It should have an Indian print copy ... - This is an interesting and useful book. It should have an Indian print copy to reduce cost so that more people can read the book. Review: A Brilliant New Way to Think About Medicine - Nesse and Williams offer a brilliant new way to look at medicine. The human body is designed by evolution (if you do not believe that, do not bother buying this book). There is almost always a reason for what we see as flaws in our designs. If we keep this simple fact in mind, we can learn a great deal about how best to keep ourselves happy and healthy. Sometimes what we perceive as a flaw is the inevitable cost of some unseen benefit. A fever may be uncomfortable, or even dangerous, but it may also play a role in fighting off a disease. At other times, our relatively recent (in evolutionary terms) move from hunter-gathers may explain the flaw. A taste for sugar and fat is a good thing if you are living on the brink of starvation on the African savanna, but it is not so helpful in a modern society. This is not a self-help book, by any means. While the authors do provide many specific examples and hard facts, the main point of the book is to encourage doctors (and patients) to think more carefully and critically about the human body. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #314,117 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #258 in Anatomy & Physiology #545 in General Medicine #1,855 in Basic Medical Sciences | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 362 Reviews | ## Images ![Why We Get Sick: The New Science of Darwinian Medicine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81kUbfbITLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is an interesting and useful book.

Doesn't look like a genuine product. Wasn't expecting this. Looks like a fake one printed in india after the book was ordered. Disappointed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vintage Why We Get Sick: The New Science of Darwinian Medicine - Your Inner Fish: A Journey Into the 3.5-Billion-Year History of the Human Body - Princeton University Press The Journey of Man: A Genetic Odyssey --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/76835014-why-we-get-sick-the-new-science-of-darwinian-medicine](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/76835014-why-we-get-sick-the-new-science-of-darwinian-medicine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
