Lyme : the first epidemic of climate change
(Book)

"Lyme disease is spreading rapidly around the globe as the ticks that carry it move into places they could not survive before. Mary Beth Pfeiffer shows how we have contributed to this growing menace and how modern medicine has underestimated its danger. She also warns of the emergence of other tick-borne illnesses that make Lyme more difficult to treat and pose their own grave risks. Lyme is an impeccably researched account of an enigmatic disease and makes a powerful case for action to fight ticks and heal patients, and recognize the role of climate change in a modern scourge"--adapted from publisher's website.
