| 520 | |a In examining epidemics throughout the history of the US, Price examines how law and government affected their outcomes-- and how those outbreaks in turn shaped our government. She draws important conclusions about the gaps in our governmental and legal response that have been faced by officials for generations-- and how we can better address the panic, conflict and chaos next time. -- adapted from jacket | ||
