Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic by David Quammen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book is one of the best books on epidemiology that I have read, hands down. Its science is more rigorous than other "Ebola books" and it even takes "And the Band Played On" to task for some of its excesses. Spillover hits the tone just right between giving you the facts about zoonotic diseases and doing so in a wholly engaging way.
If you dig scary diseases, this is a solid entry in the genre.
