Description

Hans Zinsser's Rats, Lice, and History is a rare gem ? a scientifically rigorous yet utterly engaging biography of the typhus fever and an exploration of the role of disease in human history. With a blend of wit, erudition and a deep understanding of the human condition, Zinsser brings to life the microscopic forces that have shaped our world. This classic work explores how microscopic organisms, transmitted by humble vermin, have shaped empires, altered the course of wars and influenced the fate of civilizations. Zinsser, a distinguished bacteriologist and humanist, delivers a masterclass in narrative nonfiction ? bridging the strictness of medical science with the charm of literary flair. A book far ahead of its time, it remains an essential reading for scientists, medical professionals, history lovers and curious minds drawn to the unexpected forces that have steered humanity.
