Critics Review

‘Sally Adee manages that most difficult feat in science writing: taking a subject you didn’t know you cared about and making it genuinely fascinating and exciting. The ‘ohmigod-that’s-so-cool’ moments come thick and fast as she brings the science up to date, investigating today’s cutting edge and what the future may hold for bio-electric medicine. It’s a vast and hugely exciting area of scientific research, shared with infectious enthusiasm, a real depth of knowledge and smart and funny turn of phrase. You’ll never think of life in the same way again’ - CAROLINE WILLIAMS, author of MOVE!: THE NEW SCIENCE OF BODY OVER MIND‘If you thought genetics was the secret of life, think again: in We Are Electric, Sally Adee vividly explores the magic of bioelectricity, and how it affects every aspect of our being. A joy to read - I loved this book’ - DR JOSEPH JEBELLI, author of HOW THE MIND WORKS” -” -” -” -
