Inhaltsangabe
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Wayne Biddle has written a thorough guide to the top one hundred (in terms of prevalence, or power, or even literary interest) of the innumerable potentially unfriendly organisms, microbes, bacteria, and germs that not only surround us but in many case inhabit us every day of our lives. Moving from cholera to cat scratch fever, from TB to HIV and back to the common cold, A Field Guide to Germs is thus offered in the spirit of first aid and as a bulwark against right-wing phobia. It is presented not with the quack promise of self-diagnosis, but with the absolute certainty that a little knowledge is always better than none.
