Editorial Reviews for The Gospel of Germs: Men, Women, and the Microbe in American Life
|
AIDS. Ebola. Outbreak. "Killer microbes." The Hot Zone and The Coming Plague. All around us the alarms are going off, warning of the danger of new, deadly diseases. And yet, as Nancy Tomes reminds us in her absorbing book, this is really nothing new. A remarkable work of medical and cultural history, The Gospel of Germs takes us back to the first great "germ panic" in American history, which peaked in the early 1900s, to explore the origins of our modern disease consciousness.
