1.		The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy, 2008 from Antimicrobial Therapy Price: $12.10 Customer Review: excellent reference book--BUT the copy i received is in microscopic print and therefore useless to me--I must have missed this fact in ordering--in the future MICROSCOPIIC print should be soelled out	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.	[no image]	Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers: A Guide to Stress, Stress-Related Diseases, and Coping from W H Freeman & Co (Sd) Customer Review: I'm enjoying this book. It is informative and fun and kept my interest even when the alternative leisurely pursuit was people watching on a Caribbean beach - so that can't be bad. The point the author wishes to make is zebras don't get ulcers because their stress comes from occasional short-lived... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		The Ghost Map: The Story of London's Most Terrifying Epidemic--and How It Changed Science, Cities, and the Modern World from Riverhead Trade Price: $10.20 Customer Review: Many years ago, I read the monograph of Dr John Snow ("On the mode of communication of cholera") originally published in 1854 after the famous Broad Street outbreak of cholera which is described in the book of Steven Johnson, "The ghost map". But at that time, I was unable to fully understand... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story from Anchor Price: $10.17 Customer Review: For three out of four sections in The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story, Richard Preston's maintains an engaging and informative story of the hunt for the dreaded filovirus. This is a category of viruses including Ebola that can be swiftly lethal to primates (like you) and unmerciful in their... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague In History from Viking Adult Customer Review: Once upon a time I read The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story, a book about emergent viruses like ebola, then read Stephen King's The Stand, which painted a graphic picture of life during and after a deadly plague. I thought this was the most terrifying combination of books I could read. I was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		The Demon in the Freezer from Fawcett Price: $7.99 Customer Review: Feel like being angry and disturbed? Give this a read. The Hot Zone was a great read but not nearly as scary as this book which shows just how evil mankind truly is. I keep asking myself why the Soviets would ever think that these viruses and antibiotic resistant bacteriums could be useful in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.	[no image]	Three Great Novels: The Woman in White; The Moonstone; The Law and the Lady from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was a good friend of Charles Dickens. Dickens asked him to contribute a serial to the journal "All the Year Round" of which he was the editor. This all occurred in 1859. The result is one of the first of the so-called "sensational novels" so fetching to middle class... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Control of Communicable Diseases Manual from American Public Health Association Price: $31.50 Customer Review: Great, succinct review of infectious diseases! Applicable for public health as well as clinical infectious disease practice!	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy, 2008 (Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy (Sanford)) from Antimicrobial Therapy Price: $26.95 Customer Review: After seeing the size of the text and tables of the pocket size version, the spiral bound book was definetly a better choice because it can be read without a magnifying glass and still fits into my lab coat.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.	[no image]	Polio: An American Story from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: This is one of the best books on the history of science I have ever read. I thought that the book was going to be a glowing tribute to an American technological advance but I was very wrong. The author, David Oshinsky, created a very evenly balanced story. Along with the successes, he points out the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Justinian's Flea: Plague, Empire, and the Birth of Europe from Tantor Media Price: $25.07 Customer Review: This book contains wonderful coverage of history that most authors gloss over. I enjoyed Mr. Rosen's balance of appreciation for the logical application of science of the day against his social interpretation which gave so much life to the crafted historical narrative. Maybe it's just because I... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		The Coming Plague: Newly Emerging Diseases in a World Out of Balance from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $13.60 Customer Review: This was an excellent book to learn about the emerging hemorrhagic viruses. It also talks about the interactions between humans and microbes and how humans induce their own diseases. What I did not like about this book was the long chapter about HIV/AIDS. It was long and outdated, since numerous... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Infections and Inequalities: The Modern Plagues from University of California Press Price: $15.61 Customer Review: The context of epidemics is important. What happens to the poor people who have drug resistant tuberculosis? Market mechanisms do not serve the interest of global health equity. The cost-efectiveness argument is weak. Poverty limits freedom of choice. AIDS education falls short. Arguments about... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


14.		The American Plague from Berkley Trade Price: $11.70 Customer Review: This is a very interesting true scientific mystery and good bio on Walter Reed.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.	[no image]	The Medical Detectives: Volume II from Dutton Adult Customer Review: Berton Roueché wrote for the "New Yorker" magazine for almost half a century, and was winner of the 1950 Albert Lasker Medical Journalism Award. His many volumes on physicians and medical detectives, including this book, were collected from his articles in the "New Yorker." "The Medical... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.	[no image]	Medical Microbiology: with STUDENT CONSULT Online Access from Mosby Price: $67.16 Customer Review: This book is very helpful in breaking down the necessary tests, etc. Easy to read charts and format. One of the better Micro books I've seen lately.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		Good Germs, Bad Germs: Health and Survival in a Bacterial World from Hill and Wang Price: $11.20 Customer Review: This book should convince you of a new paradigm. We do not live in a world of bacteria that are trying to invade and kill us. We live in a an self-made environment of bacteria that have a stake in our survival, and that protect us from potentially harmful disease. Our use and overuse of antibiotics... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		The Great Mortality: An Intimate History of the Black Death, the Most Devastating Plague of All Time (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.17 Customer Review: _The Great Mortality_ is a synthesis of more specialized scholarly texts using some of the latest creative non-fiction techniques to make it more accessible for the general reader. Due to the nature of the sources, the Black Death is actually a very difficult subject matter to turn into a readable... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.		Plagues and Peoples from Anchor Price: $10.85 Customer Review: In this 1976 work, acclaimed historian William McNeill investigated the role of parasitism (both micro in the form of disease and macro in the form of rulers and governments) on the rise and fall of historical societies. To say that "Plagues and Peoples" was a success would be a monumental... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


20.	[no image]	Bailey & Scott's Diagnostic Microbiology from Mosby Elsevier Health Science Customer Review: This book holds a lot of useful information from safety to bacteria. Some of the parasitology was lacking and all of the tables can be useful or a menace depending on how well you can learn from them. The pictures were very useful and everything is easy to understand.
