Descripción
為追溯1989年在雷斯頓造成猴子大量死亡的伊波拉爆發事件,作者爬梳大量文獻、訪談當年與早先曾接觸伊波拉病例的醫師與研究者,並親赴最可能為伊波拉源頭的中非基藤岩洞,將70至80年代遽然出現、又旋即消失的幾次伊波拉爆發事件予以串連,構成了一部了解伊波拉疫情發展,生動而可信的紀錄。

Reseñas
Ver todoI'm not sure what it is about potentially world-ending diseases, but please, people - keep writing books about them.'The Hot Zone' is just as captivating as Preston's 'The Demon in the Freezer,' which concerns smallpox and anthrax. I listened to the audiobook and never wanted to stop listening. I learned so much, and Ebola is such a fascinating virus. It *dissolves* you WHILE YOU'RE STILL ALIVE. Amazing. Every time I read books like this, I'm sad that I wasn't better in the STEM fields because I think the complexities of viruses and disease are incredible and wish I had the smarts to study them. 5 stars all around. At this point, I'm setting out to read everything Preston has written.
