Contagious
Scott Sigler
Crown
, 2008
I could NOT put this down
As a big fan of Scott's books, I was excited for the release of this book. This is the first time one of his books has been available in print before being released as a podcast, so it was my first time being able to read one of his stories at my pace instead of ...
Becoming A Contagious Christian
Bill Hybels
,
Mark Mittelberg
Zondervan
, 1996
A Fun Read, and Helpful!
Bill Hybels is a great communicator, and his way of presenting information is refreshing. We are using this book with a small Home Fellowship group, and the discussions are lively. The real life examples are very real and never seem contrived. Enjoy this book and ...
The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story
Richard Preston
Anchor
, 1999
Might have read it even if it wasn't extra credit
(I am using my Dad's account-Courtney) The Demon in the Freezer was absolutely impossible to put down. Richard Preston's books, The Demon in the Freezer and The Hot Zone, have been the only nonfiction books I have read in a long time. Surprisingly, I liked them. The ...
The Coming Plague: Newly Emerging Diseases in a World Out of Balance
Laurie Garrett
Penguin (Non-Classics)
, 1995
More riveting than The Hot Zone
If you liked The Hot Zone, you will love this book. The Hot Zone told the scary story of a variant of Ebola that turned out to be harmless to humans. The Coming Plague narrates the history of little-known but lethal diseases such as Machupo, Ebola, Four-Corners ...
Healing Lyme: Natural Healing And Prevention of Lyme Borreliosis And Its Coinfections
Stephen Harrod Buhner
Raven Press
, 2005
We have seen some of these herbal recommendations help patients
Healing Lyme is easily the best discussion of Lymes disease and Lymes treatment, which I have found. Desperation Medicine by Ritchie Shoemaker, is an easier read, since it contains numerous case histories, but the well researched discussions of volumes of peer reviewed ...
Sustaining Life: How Human Health Depends on Biodiversity
Oxford University Press, USA
, 2008
A must have for conservationists and general public (and cheap!!)
First the more practical stuff. I think the book is very cheap, because I found for a much higher price somewhere else, but also because of its size and print quality (I expected something smaller). And it arrived very fast (I got super-fast shipping for free). Now ...
Contagious Joy: Joyful Devotions to Lift Your Spirits (Women of Faith)
Women of Faith
Thomas Nelson
, 2006
AWESOME
I got this book for me, but I have been reading it to my husband. He really likes it also.

Fantastic book ...
I used this book for my undergrad class and luckily my med school also uses this. As well as my husband has a previous copy that he used in med school. The text is very thorough, although it was lacking in a basic classification of bacteria, that would have been ...
Deadly Feasts: The "Prion" Controversy and the Public's Health
Richard Rhodes
Simon & Schuster
, 1998
First, Last and Foremost
When Richard Rhodes published Deadly Feasts in 1997 it all seemed doubtful and futuristic. His investigations followed the development of this horror from the first, to 1997, and predicted the future (now). Rhodes insisted that if practices weren't changed the US ...
Basic Virology

Wiley-Blackwell
, 2007
A good investment for any microbiology student.
The information presented in this book was very helpful in my understanding of virology. The text was very easily followed and subjects presented in a straightforward manner. Basic Virology is a must have!
Good Germs, Bad Germs: Health and Survival in a Bacterial World
Jessica Snyder Sachs
Hill and Wang
, 2008
Very Well-Written Science for the Average Reader
I read the original 2007 hardcover. It is a gripping account of the relationship between bacteria and humans, from parasitic disease makers to necessary commensals. You will find in very clear and plain English much you need to know about the right balance of ...
Schaechter's Mechanisms of Microbial Disease (Mechanisms of Microbial Disease (Schaechter))
Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
, 2006
Indispensable guide to microbiology
Excellent presentation of material relevant to all aspects of microbiology mechanisms within the medical industry. Core book! A must have!
The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague In History
John M. Barry
Viking Adult
, 2004
Terrifying
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 ...
