Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the author's observations on the subject of infection and contagious diseases. The author concludes that many commonly held beliefs about infectious diseases are false. The author discusses the limitations of quarantine and argues that many so-called infectious diseases are not infectious at all. This book challenges long-held assumptions about disease transmission and argues for a more nuanced understanding of the role of germs and contagion. The book concludes with a discussion of the ethical implications of quarantine and isolation measures. The author argues that these measures can be cruel and unjust and that they should only be used as a last resort. This book is a valuable contribution to the debate about the nature of infectious diseases and the best way to prevent their spread.
