Science journalist Matt Simon joins Cool Science Radio. Simon has written Plight of the Living Dead. Zombieism isn't just the stuff of movies and TV shows like The Walking Dead .

Nothing Hollywood dreams up can match the brilliant, horrific zombies that natural selection has produced time and time again. Halloween move over...the real science stuff is much scarier.
