A harrowing, well-told, terrifying tale of epidemic and science and... just a darn good read. Though it might not be for you if you have trouble with the disgusting... because much of what the book deals with is rather disgusting.

No, I mean it. Really disgusting. But really good work, too, to see just exactly what people once lived with... a nice touch of fear and shock and good good writing.

This, by the way, was a recommendation.

Blessings.
