Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben.

Reviews
"A distinctive and very useful contribution to the public understanding of disease."--Mark Harrison, author of Contagion: How Commerce Has Spread Disease and Director, Wellcome Unit for the History of Medicine "Essential reading for anyone who is concerned about society's preparedness to meet new microbial challenges and who appreciates the importance of history to develop effective and efficient responses."--Socrates Litsios, author of The Tomorrow of Malaria "A superb synthesis of a complex and important topic. Snowden brings to the subject a wealth of previous research on disease and brilliantly integrates his work into more general historical concerns. A major achievement."--William Bynum, author of A Little History of Science "Professor Snowden provides an authoritative and very readable historical account of several of the major the major infectious diseases epidemics that have afflicted mankind with a focus on their impact on society."--Brian Greenwood, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine "In an era of rapidly emerging diseases, Epidemics and Society reminds us that in framing epidemics we are also, always, refiguring human life and fate in relation to ecology and society."--Warwick Anderson, author of Colonial Pathologies: American Tropical Medicine, Race, and Hygiene in the Philippines, "Brilliant and sobering."--Paul Kennedy, Wall Street Journal "Snowden . . . examines the ways in which disease outbreaks have shaped politics, crushed revolutions, and entrenched racial and economic discrimination. . . . Gigantic in scope, stretching across centuries and continents, Snowden's account seeks to explain, too, the ways in which social structures have allowed diseases to flourish."--Isaac Chotiner, New Yorker "Frank Snowden's book presents a comprehensive historical perspective on societies' vulnerabilities to pandemics. The author presents these not as random events but rather endogenous: "Every society produces its own specific vulnerabilities". Pandemics help us understand societies' structures and their political priorities. A well-written, highly entertaining and relevant book."--Milton Hayek, Financial Times 'Readers' Best Books' "[A] wide-ranging study"--Laura Spinney, Nature "Covering roughly a millennium on about 550 pages is no small task...very readable"--Christoph Gradmann, The Lancet "Illuminating and instructive, jam-packed with fascinating details. . . . A splendid--and scary--account of a potent and still-present threat to humankind."--Glenn Altschuler, Florida Courier "A very useful, wide-ranging review of the multiple connections between epidemic disease and historical change and development. . . . A very readable book. Highly recommended. All readers."-- Choice #1 of "5 Books to Read for Context on the Coronavirus Outbreak"-- World Economic Forum "Encyclopedic in scope, comprehensive in coverage, and highly readable, [the book] provides a kind of course of study for anyone curious to learn more about the general subject."--Peter I. Rose, Society "Essential reading for anyone who is concerned about society's preparedness to meet new microbial challenges and who appreciates the importance of history to develop effective and efficient responses."--Socrates Litsios, author of The Tomorrow of Malaria "A superb synthesis of a complex and important topic.
