Anthropology of Infectious Disease, (PDF) synthesizes the thriving field of anthropology of infectious disease in a biocultural, critical framework. Expert medical anthropologist Merrill Singer holistically combines the behaviors of microorganisms and the activities of complex social systems, presenting how we exist with pathogenic agents of disease in a complicated process of co-evolution. He also links human diseases to larger ecosystems and numerous other species that are future sources of new human infections.
