The Great Influenza 在线电子书 用户评价

评分

关于1918大流感的原理、社会环境、科学史背景、历程和参与其中的科学家。作者极有野心,希望以大流感串联起前后的科学史和国际关系变化。结构清楚、证据众多,尤其是数字。开始以为是小说笔法的学术著作,看到一半发现不是学术著作——学术著作会集中论证一个观点,也不是小说——小说会让influenza没结束的时候就有疫苗;这就是现实——1918年的,也是今天的。

评分

很久以前被推荐过,因为到处买不到而作罢。没想到covid19来的这么猛烈,又持续了这么久,让我特别想看看1918年的大流感是怎么回事。这本书看的让我特别心累……就跟作者后序说到的一样,他并没有仅仅focus大流感这个主题,讲了美国医学变迁等这这那那的事情,反而显得杂乱无章。我们被作者点名批评,质疑transparency;人类从大流感学到什么?科学毋庸置疑的飞速进步,但是面临变异的病毒,我们还是很难赶上脚步。那么最重要的是什么?tell the truth!就这么简单,却一忘再忘

评分

必须5星。本书最有愿意的是最后一章的最后一句话。

故事书

评分

用1918年大流感为立足点的现代医学史、当时的美国政治背景、战争、社会文化环境,属于全景式的流行病史。但是我觉得叙述过于散,有时在不同的方面肆意跳跃,造成看的过程中时不时重点就不知在哪儿了。最后的后记总结相当重要,放在当下的covid-19大危机中,字字珠玑

The Great Influenza 在线电子书 著者简介

John M. Barry is an American author and historian, perhaps best known for his books on the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 the influenza pandemic of 1918 and his book on the development of the modern form of the ideas of separation of church and state and individual liberty. His most recent book is Roger Williams and the Creation of the American Soul: Church, State, and the Birth of Liberty (Viking 2012).

Barry's 1997 book Rising Tide: The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 and How It Changed America appeared on the New York Times Best Seller list and won the 1998 Francis Parkman Prize from the Society of American Historians for the year's best book on American history. His work on water-related issues was recognized by the National Academies of Sciences in its invitation to give the 2006 Abel Wolman Distinguished Lecture on Water Resources; he is the only non-scientist ever to give that lecture.

His 2004 book The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Greatest Plague in History was also a New York Times Best Seller, and won the 2005 Keck Communications Award from the United States National Academies of Science for the year's outstanding book on science or medicine. In 2005 he also won the "September 11th Award" from the Center for Biodefense and Emerging Pathogens at Brown University. He has served on a federal government's Infectious Disease Board of Experts, on the advisory board of MIT's Center for Engineering Fundamentals, and on the advisory committee at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health for its Center for Refugee and Disaster Response.

The expertise he developed in these two areas has involved him in policy-making, risk communication and disaster management strategies, and developing resilient communities, and this work resulted in his induction into Delta Omega, the academic honorary society for public health. More specifically, he has advised the private sector and local, state, national, and international government officials about preparing for another influenza pandemic. He has also both advised officials and taken a direct role in preparing for water-related disasters. A resident of New Orleans, after Hurricane Katrina he was also named to both the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority, which is the levee board overseeing several separate levee districts in the New Orleans area, and the state's Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority, which is responsible for hurricane protection for the entire state.

His first book, The Ambition and the Power: A true story of Washington, appeared in 1989 and explored the operation of the U.S. Congress, the use of power by Speaker of the House Jim Wright, and the rise of future Speaker Newt Gingrich. In 1995 the New York Times named it one of the eleven best books ever written on Congress and Washington.

With Steven Rosenberg, MD, Ph.D., chief of the Surgery Branch at the National Cancer Institute and a pioneer in the development of "immunotherapy" for cancer—stimulating the immune system to attack cancer—Barry co-authored his second book, The Transformed Cell: Unlocking the Mysteries of Cancer, which was published in 12 languages.

Barry has written for The New York Times, Time Magazine, Fortune, The Washington Post, Esquire, and other publications and frequently appears as a guest commentator on broadcast media.

He has also coached high school and college football, and his first published article was about blocking assignments for offensive linemen and appeared in a professional journal for coaches, Scholastic Coach.

The Great Influenza 在线电子书 图书描述

No disease the world has ever known even remotely resembles the great influenza epidemic of 1918. Presumed to have begun when sick farm animals infected soldiers in Kansas, spreading and mutating into a lethal strain as troops carried it to Europe, it exploded across the world with unequaled ferocity and speed. It killed more people in twenty weeks than AIDS has killed in twenty years; it killed more people in a year than the plagues of the Middle Ages killed in a century. Victims bled from the ears and nose, turned blue from lack of oxygen, suffered aches that felt like bones being broken, and died. In the United States, where bodies were stacked without coffins on trucks, nearly seven times as many people died of influenza as in the First World War.

In his powerful new book, award-winning historian John M. Barry unfolds a tale that is magisterial in its breadth and in the depth of its research, and spellbinding as he weaves multiple narrative strands together. In this first great collision between science and epidemic disease, even as society approached collapse, a handful of heroic researchers stepped forward, risking their lives to confront this strange disease. Titans like William Welch at the newly formed Johns Hopkins Medical School and colleagues at Rockefeller University and others from around the country revolutionized American science and public health, and their work in this crisis led to crucial discoveries that we are still using and learning from today.

The Washington Post’s Jonathan Yardley said Barry’s last book can "change the way we think." The Great Influenza may also change the way we see the world.

首先,其余几位写书评的是托。书不一定差,但是合作翻译的,水平参差不齐,冷不丁跳出一个名字来,小名儿叫得可亲密了,好像人人知道他的光荣事迹,可我怎么都想不起来这个人哪里出现过,我都怀疑自己的脑子出问题了,于是往前面翻,结果确定这个人是在书中第一次出现。 还有...

断断续续读了一部分,感觉书的内容贯穿了现代传染病学的历史,从巴斯德发现感染的原理开始,若干继承者不断深入探索,直至发现DNA/RNA遗传机制为止。 虽然以1918大流感为题,感觉事实上并不是那次流感的纪实。
