From School Library Journal:
Grade 6-10--Along with information about advancements in disease control, Collier also discusses major outbreaks that may not have led to a vaccine, but definitely impacted the way people lived, or died. The diseases described include smallpox, the Black Death, rabies, cholera, diphtheria, influenza, ebola, and AIDS. The book is broader in scope than the title implies, and students looking into medical science research, tracing the history of diseases, or specifically studying vaccines will find material they need here. The writing is clear, and color and black-and-white illustrations appear throughout. Among the recent books on diseases, this one stands out.--Lynn Evarts, Sauk Prairie High School, Prairie du Sac, WI
