Today, we are far less likely to die from infection than at any
other time in history, but still we worry about epidemics, the
menace of antibiotic resistance and modern 'plagues' like Ebola. In
this timely new book, eminent bacteriologist Hugh Pennington
explores why these fears remain and why they are unfounded. He
reports on outright victories (such as smallpox), battles where the
enemy is on its last stand (polio), surprise attacks from
vegetarian bats (Ebola, SARS) and demented cows (BSE). Qualified
optimism, he argues, is the message for the future but the battles
will go on forever.
