Braaaiiinnnsss!: From Academics to Zombies Tapa blanda - 2011

de Robert Smith? (Editor); Stacey Smith? (Editor)


Información de la editorial

In the fight against zombies, our most important weapons are our brains. It's time to unleash them. Think you know a thing or two about zombies? Think again. If you're going to keep your wits--and your brains--about you during a zombie attack, you need expert advice.

Braaaiiinnnsss!: From Academics to Zombies gathers together an irreverent group of scholars and writers to take a serious look at how zombies threaten almost every aspect of our lives. Spawned from the viral publication "When Zombies Attack!: Mathematical Modelling of an Outbreak of Zombie Infection," this multidisciplinary book draws on a variety of fields including biology, history, law, gender studies, archaeology, library science and landscape architecture.

Part homage to zombie films and fiction, part cultural study, this collection humorously explores our deep-seated fear of the undead. Engaging and accessible, Braaaiiinnnnssss! will amuse academics and zombie fans alike.

Published in English.

Acerca del autor

Stacey Smith? is full professor at the University of Ottawa.

No, the question mark is not a typo, but rather how Stacey Smith? distinguishes herself in a world of Google searches. Though the name is unique in itself, it is Stacey's research that truly marks her as a creative and innovative mathematical biologist.

Professor Smith? is well known for her research in an imaginary field: zombies. "By modelling zombies, we learn about the process of dealing with unfamiliar biology," says Stacey. Stacey further explores the topic in her book Braaaiiinnnsss: From Academics to Zombies, and in Mathematical Modelling of Zombies, both published at the University of Ottawa Press.
