Rampaging, driven, killing machines. Soulless and dead. Infected
and infectious. Zombies. The epidemic of the living dead is
stronger than ever in today's pop-culture, but long before exotic
viruses, biological warfare, and sinister military experiments
brought the dead back to life in our cinemas and on our television
screens, there were the dark spells and incantations of the ancient
Egyptians, the Sumerians, and the Babylonians. Blending the
historical with the modern, the biographical with the literary, the
plants and animals with bacteria and viruses, the mythological with
the horrifying true tales, "The Zombie Book: The Encyclopedia of
the Living Dead" is a comprehensive resource to understanding,
combating, and avoiding zombies.
More than 250 entries cover everything from hit television shows,
books, and movies, including "The Walking Dead," "World War Z" and
"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, " to zombies' ignominious role in
folklore and mythology, such as the Greek god Asclepius, ancient
Voodoo religion, and the Native American Wendigo legend. "The
Zombie Book: The Encyclopedia of the Living Dead" examines mad cow
disease, the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the Centers for Disease
Control preparing for the end of the world, and much, much more.
