理查德•普雷斯顿(RICHARD PRESTON,1954— ),美国非虚构作家,《纽约客》撰稿人。他在普林斯顿大学获得了英文博士学位,师从著名的非虚构作家约翰•麦克菲。普雷斯顿擅长以非虚构手法,处理科学题材。1984年,他出版了首部非虚构作品《第一道光》,这本天文学题材的书获得了美国物理学学会的科学写作奖。十年后,普雷斯顿推出了另一部科学写作经典《血疫》,这本描写埃博拉病毒缘起的作品获得了巨大的成功,长踞《纽约时报》非虚构类畅销书榜首达61周。普雷斯顿因此获得了美国疾病控制与预防中心颁发的防疫斗士奖,他也是有史以来唯一以非医师身分获奖的得主。
A highly infectious, deadly virus from the central African rain forest suddenly appears in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. There is no cure. In a few days 90 percent of its victims are dead. A secret military SWAT team of soldiers and scientists is mobilized to stop the outbreak of this exotic "hot" virus. The Hot Zone tells this dramatic story, giving a hair-raising account of the
appearance of rare and lethal viruses and their "crashes" into the human race. Shocking, frightening, and impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone proves that truth really is scarier than fiction.

评分太恐怖了!这是读完这本书的第一感受。书的封面上印着斯蒂芬·金的推荐语:“«血疫»的第一章,是我这辈子读过最可怕的”。是的,书中对于埃博拉患者身体崩溃的描写,仅仅使用文字,隔着书本都能让人感到不寒而栗,真实的场面恐怕远远超过了我们的承受能力。 对于埃博拉病...
