Additional Information
Description
Dangerous Miracle is a gripping account of one of humanity's most significant technological achievements—and why we are now on the verge of losing it.
About the Book: Antibiotics were invented by microbes and mined by humans, yet today they are rapidly running out. This spellbinding history chronicles the discovery of these life-saving drugs alongside the corporate greed that has accelerated their decline. Author Liam Shaw frames antibiotics as the "fossil fuels of medicine"—a finite resource we have exhausted through overuse. Part scientific thriller and part urgent warning, this book is an essential read for anyone concerned about the future of global health and the urgent need to adapt our relationship with medicine.
