You Are Civilized |
 You are mild mannered and even a bit shy at first. It takes a while for you to come out of your shell. You are conscientious and savvy. You enjoy the healthy things in life. You are a person of subtle taste. You don't like to overwhelm your senses. No one would describe you as boring. You have a fresh and interesting outlook. |

Book Review: Inside the Outbreaks: The Elite Medical Detectives of the Epidemic Intelligence Service by Mark Pendergrast
Book: Inside the Outbreaks: The Elite Medical Detectives of the Epidemic Intelligence Service by Mark Pendergrast
About: Pendergrast tells stories of the Center for Disease Control's Epidemic Intelligence Service. The EIS officers travel around the world combating and solving epidemics.
Pros: Fascinating book with a great mix of tales about a variety of locations and diseases.
Cons: Awful organization: It's arranged chronologically so it goes from topic to topic alot. Arranging it by country or disease type would have improved the reader's experience. Far too many "see pages xxx-xxx" footnotes. No in-text cites.
Grade: C+
