Description:
Plagues and Peoples is historian William McNeill's classic and radical interpretation of world history as seen through the extraordinary impact -- political, demographic, ecological, and psychological -- that disease has had on human history. From the conquest of Mexico by smallpox as much as by the Spanish, to the bubonic plague in China, to the typhoid epidemic in Europe, the history of disease is the history of humankind. Today, with the proliferation of AIDS since the early 1980s, another chapter has been added to this chronicle, and McNeill explores this frightening phenomenon in a new introduction.
Expand description
With more than 100,000 copies in print, Plagues and Peoples has truly become a seminal work. Thought-provoking, well-researched, and compulsively readable, it is that rare book that is as fascinating as it is scholarly, and as intriguing as it is enlightening.
