Spillover David Quammen

Korean edition of [Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic] by David Quammen. The next big human pandemic is likely to be caused by a new virus coming to humans from wildlife. Experts call such an event "spillover" and they warn us to brace ourselves. David Quammen has tracked this subject from Central Africa, Bangladesh, and southern China to the laboratories where researchers work in space suits to study lethal viruses. He illuminates the dynamics of Ebola, SARS, bird flu, Lyme disease, and other emerging threats and tells the story of AIDS and its origins as it has never before been told. Korean edition translated by Gang Byeong Cheol.
