Summary

Travel and Superbugs explores the alarming link between international travel and the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, or superbugs, transforming local infections into global threats. The book highlights how increased global mobility contributes to the rapid dissemination of these resistant strains. For instance, the rise of antibiotic resistance directly mirrors the increase in international travel since the mid-20th century. Understanding this connection is crucial, as travelers can unknowingly become carriers, spreading resistant bacteria across borders.

 
The book presents a structured analysis, beginning with the basics of antibiotic resistance and microbial evolution. It then traces the spread of specific resistant strains along popular travel routes using epidemiological data. Subsequent chapters delve into high-risk settings like hospitals and cruise ships.

 
The book emphasizes the need for enhanced surveillance, stricter antibiotic stewardship, and international collaboration to combat the spread of superbugs. Ultimately, Travel and Superbugs provides valuable insights for travelers, healthcare professionals, and policymakers seeking to understand and mitigate the risks associated with antibiotic resistance in an interconnected world.

    Throughout personal essays spiked with humor and natural science, archaeologist R. E. Burrillo widens his range beyond his popular Behind the Bears Ears. 
 
 
 
After an upstate New York childhood and a bartending stint in New Orleans's French Quarter, seasonal resort work led R. E. Burrillo to the desert Southwest, whose redrock landscapes were a source of stability through mental and physical illness. In The Backwoods of Everywhere, archaeologist Burrillo excavates his past, examining Indigenous and tourist cultures, the complexities of American archaeology, and what it means to be a local. From the ancient canal systems of Phoenix, Arizona, to the modern Mayan communities of the Yucatan Peninsula, to the depths of the Grand Canyon, Burrillo brings listeners on an entertaining romp chock-full of history, ecology, cultural preservation, and personal stories. 
 
 
 
In the vein of Bill Bryson, Tim Cahill, and Ellen Meloy, Burrillo's is a fresh voice in humor-spiked nature writing and cultural commentary. Running throughout the wide-ranging topics of The Backwoods of Everywhere are themes of place and locality, and how these vary between cultures and individuals. Marrying the intensely personal with the complex and technical, Burrillo's candid voice brings humor, wonder, irony, and wit to each thought-provoking essay.
