9798187289776: What Science Says About... Antibiotic Resistance: The Evidence-First Guide to the Unexplained

Synopsis

The drugs that saved modern medicine are losing a war scientists always knew they couldn't permanently win.

Antibiotic resistance isn't a rare medical glitch — it's a measurable, accelerating global threat, already linked to millions of deaths each year, and it will only intensify as familiar drugs stop working.

Research reveals a molecular arms race with no permanent winner, driven by evolutionary forces no drug can outrun, and shaped as much by economics and misunderstanding as by biology — with real stakes for how you're treated the next time you get sick.

Inside, you'll discover:
– Why your body never becomes resistant — only bacteria do
– How one resistance gene crossed continents without a single infected traveler
– Why new antibiotics may never be profitable enough to save us

Part of the What Science Says About… series, where curiosity meets rigorous, evidence-first science writing.
