Sinossi

"Silent Plague Chronicles" offers a compelling exploration of understudied infectious diseases that have quietly shaped human history while remaining in the shadows of more prominent epidemics.This comprehensive work uniquely bridges historical accounts with modern medical understanding, examining diseases like tularemia, Q fever, and endemic typhus through the lens of their ecological origins, socio-economic impacts, and potential for re-emergence in today's world. The book masterfully weaves together archaeological evidence, historical medical records, and contemporary epidemiological data to demonstrate how these neglected diseases serve as crucial indicators of environmental change and social inequality.Through a three-part structure, readers journey from the historical context of each disease through their biological characteristics, culminating in an analysis of their current status and future implications. This approach makes complex epidemiological concepts accessible while maintaining scientific rigor.What sets this work apart is its interdisciplinary methodology, combining insights from epidemiology, molecular biology, social history, and climate science. The book emphasizes how understanding these overlooked diseases is vital for comprehensive public health preparedness, particularly in vulnerable populations and resource-limited settings.By examining how these pathogens have adapted alongside human civilization, the text provides valuable insights for healthcare professionals, epidemiologists, and students working in disease prevention and global health security.

Africa's Wild Dogs - A survival...

Jocelin Kagan

There are roughly 6,600 wild dogs left in Africa yet they have cast such a spell on top wildlife photographer and naturalist Jocelin Kagan that she is determined to help save them. 
If left to their own devices, they are more than capable of thriving, as this sumptuous photographic natural history shows. Jocelin has called in world experts to add their latest findings about these resourceful, graceful and highly skilled family groups.
Nomadic predators whose territories range thousands of kilometres, they hunt co-operatively, preying on small herbivores. Non-confrontational, they form complex bonds as this book reveals.
Now restricted to small populations and threatened by some shoot-to-kill policies, habitat fragmentation, diseases from domestic dogs, climate change and snares, as well as natural predation from hyenas and lions, Africa's wild dogs will be supported by all the royalties from this book.

Cancer - A Very Short...

Nick James

In 1961 John F. Kennedy pledged to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade. Nine years later, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon. Ten years later, Richard Nixon echoed this pledge by declaring a "war" on cancer. More than thirty years later, however, cancer remains one of the largest causes of death worldwide, with around one in three developing the disease. Curing cancer is not "rocket science," but the question is, why has cancer proved to be harder to tackle than the moon landings turned out to be? 
 
 
 
Cancer research is a major economic activity. There are constant improvements in treatment techniques that result in better cure rates and increased quality and quantity of life for those with the disease, yet stories of breakthroughs in a cure for cancer are often in the media. 
 
 
 
In this Very Short Introduction Nick James, founder of the CancerHelp UK website, examines the trends in diagnosis and treatment of the disease, as well as its economic consequences. Asking what cancer is and what causes it, he considers issues surrounding expensive drug development, what can be done to reduce the risk of developing cancer, and the use of complementary and alternative therapies.
