In this Very Short Introduction, Dorothy Crawford demonstrates how clever these entities really are. From their discovery and the unravelling of their intricate structures, Crawford demonstrates how these tiny parasites are by far the most abundant life forms on the planet.

Hoy, López-Gatell reporta a diario las consecuencias de sus decisiones: más de 134 mil mexicanos han muerto y la pandemia no está cerca de concluir."

The enormous human and economic toll of the rapidly spreading COVID-19 disease offers a vivid reminder that infectious disease pandemics are one of the greatest existential threats to humanity.

Seitdem Menschen sesshafte Landwirtschaft betreiben, kommt es immer wieder zu tödlichen Epidemien. Aber warum nehmen diese Infektionen heute die Form weltweiter Pandemien an, so wie es bei COVID-19, SARS, MERS oder der Vogelgrippe der Fall war? Warum häufen sie sich - und was lässt sich dagegen unternehmen? Der US-amerikanische Biologe Rob Wallace erklärt, wie Pandemien entstehen und warum sie sich global ausbreiten. In seiner Analyse berücksichtigt er die evolutionäre Dynamik der Krankheitserreger ebenso wie die gegenwärtigen ökologischen und ökonomischen Strukturen.

Christian W. McMillen provides a concise yet comprehensive account of pandemics throughout human history, illustrating how pandemic disease has shaped history and, at the same time, social behavior has influenced pandemic disease.

The bumper-sticker directive to ‘follow the science’ was actually an evasion of responsibility. It let people off the hook for their bad decisions in a crisis. Was New York Governor Cuomo’s executive order sending COVID-hospitalized patients back to nursing homes to infect other vulnerable nursing home patients ‘following the science’? Relative to the total nursing home population, Governor Cuomo contributed to a larger percentage of nursing-home deaths - especially when compared to the states without such a policy.

Her new book, Breathtaking, is an unflinching insider's account of medicine in the time of coronavirus.

Societies have struggled with pandemics for thousands of years. Plague and cholera, smallpox and influenza; deadly diseases spring up, kill thousands, if not millions, and we still don’t learn.
