Review
An important book! -- Judged non-fiction book of the year, The New York Times.
All power to Ryan. This (book) is just what is needed ... indeed fascinating ... The world is very short of people willing and able to help in the struggle against tuberculosis. This book could help. -- Paul Nunn, New Scientist.
As exciting as a detective novel ... Dr Ryan tells an important and moving story. His book should be compulsory reading for those who ignorantly or dishonestly deny the power of science to contribute to human welfare. -- Anthony Daniels, The Sunday Telegraph.
Dr Ryan's book is gratifying reading, written at the pace of a mystery thriller and styled as a psychodrama, yet remarkably accurate in scientific detail. -- Dr Jerome Groopman, Wall Street Journal.
I read with absorbing interest, not only because the author tells the story well ... Much in this book testifies to the author's acute perception of the disease's nature. -- John Keegan, The Daily Telegraph.
