About this book

"In Rising Plague, Dr. Brad Spellberg--an infectious diseases specialist and member of a national task force charged with attacking antibiotic resistant infections--tells the story of this potentially grave public health crisis. The author shares true and very moving patient stories to emphasize the terrible frustration he and his colleagues have experienced while attempting to treat untreatable infections, not to mention the heart-break and tragedy that many of these patients' families have had to endure."--Inside cover.
