A woman waves her hand and her car roars to life. She touches her unadorned ear to take a call in the car as she drives to a cryotherapy parlor. She is a biohacker. What other technologies might humans use to optimize themselves? In STEM Body: Biohackers, readers will learn about three types of biohacking, from body implants to DNA manipulation. They will learn the stories of the scientists and engineers who have experimented with hacking their own bodies, pushing the envelope of what makes humans human.
At just 32 pages, Full Tilt Fast Reads help striving middle school readers build reading stamina and stay engaged with high-interest low-level content and dynamic topics.
