About this book
David Quammen investigates how infections move from wild animals into human populations. Field reporting with disease researchers connects encounters with wildlife to wider changes in ecosystems and global travel. This science book examines the shared processes behind emerging diseases and the conditions that can allow a local infection to become a pandemic.
