Unlock the Secrets of Infection and Immunity
Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. In The War Within Us, well-known author and infectious disease specialist Cedric Mims makes the intricacies of the immune system and infectious diseases less baffling for the general reader and answers the questions of how things work and why. The story is told in terms of the ancient conflict between the invader (the infectious disease) and the defender (the body’s immune system) and the strategies and counter-strategies used by both sides, making it a book that is both informative and interesting to read.
