About This Item
Toronto, ON: Penguin, 1996. Paperback. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; age tanned; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; By killing millions of people in short periods of time, epidemics have crumbled empires, defeated armies and irrevocably changed the way we live and love. But mass die-offs do not arrive uninvited. It takes a good dose of civilized provocation to get germs to go on a killing spree, and an even stronger effort to stop them one the dying has begun. In this uniques and compelling history, Nikiforuk chronicles society's intimate relationship with disease.
