Roman Fishman is a biologist, biochemist, science editor, and journalist.
The book "Why Does My Head Itch?" tells everyone who lice are, how and why they end up on a person's head and how they live there, and how humans have coexisted with them throughout different eras—from antiquity to the present day. It explains why having head lice is nothing to be ashamed of, how to reduce the risk of infection, and what to do if you catch them.
Lice have been constant human companions for many centuries, and most people have been infected at least once. However, it is not customary to talk about them, and that is why we know very little about these insects.
