Quammen?s book is compelling and shows that there are many candidates out there vying to be the next pandemic ? British Journal of General Practice
Quammen has a wide range of knowledge, an agile pen, and a generous heart ? New York Times Book Review
A tremendous book...this gives you all you need to know and all you should know. Quammen?s research and the analysis make sensationalism unnecessary ? Sunday Times
