|aIn this fascinating collection of bizarre medical history, curious cures, and modern interventions, pathologists' assistant A.D. Gray exaines over 40 terrifying infectious diseases in a quirky, easy to understand manner. Take a look at how diseases hijack and destroy the human body, prevention strategies that could potentially spare you from a horrific demise, and learn how humans have conquered some of these microbes through science and serendipity. The excessively graphic, borderline ridiculous portraits of microscopic monsters in Compendium Pandemica will simultaneously educate and entertain you in a way that neutralizes some of the terror disease can create. -- cover.
