Through human stories and cutting-edge science, Walters explores the origins of seven diseases: Mad Cow Disease, HIV/AIDS, Salmonella DT104, Lyme Disease, Hantavirus, West Nile, and new strains of flu. He shows that they originate from manipulation of the environment, from emitting carbon and clear-cutting forests to feeding naturally herbivorous cows "recycled animal protein." Readers will both learn how today's plagues first developed and discover patterns that could help prevent the diseases of tomorrow"--Provided by publisher. 000697690 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000697690 650_0 $$aEpidemiology$$vPopular works. 000697690 650_0 $$aHuman ecology$$vPopular works. 000697690 650_0 $$aEnvironmental health$$vPopular works. 000697690 74002 $$aSix modern plagues and how we are causing them. 000697690 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWalters, Mark Jerome, author.$$tSeven modern plagues and how we are causing them$$z9781610914659$$w(DLC) 2013031297$$w(OCoLC)855332911 000697690 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000697690 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.5822/978-1-61091-466-6$$zOnline Access 000697690 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:697690$$pGLOBAL_SET 000697690 980__ $$aEBOOK 000697690 980__ $$aBIB 000697690 982__ $$aEbook 000697690 983__ $$aOnline 000697690 994__ $$a92$$bISE
