Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book studies the long-standing human quest to understand the causes and nature of epidemic diseases. The author shows how human civilization's progress has been continually shaped by the emergence of new diseases and the adaptations people have had to make. The author argues that every disease outbreak has roots in an imbalance between human behavior, our social environment, and the natural world, and that the seeds of disease have existed ever since the fall of man. The author suggests that the very germs of disease are living organisms, reproductively active and able to evolve in response to the environments they encounter. Through infections and epidemics, the author explores how these germs have influenced the development of medical science, pharmacology, philosophies of health and disease, and more. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of epidemics, the nature of disease, and the profound ways in which these phenomena have shaped human civilization.
