Reader reviews for Malaria and Rome: A History of Malaria in Ancient Italy

From the publisher

Malaria and Rome is the first comprehensive book on the history of malaria in Roman Italy. Aimed at an interdisciplinary readership, it explores the evolution and ecology of malaria, its medical and demographic effects on human populations in antiquity, its social and economic effects, the human responses to it, and the human interpretations of it.

First line

Keith Hopkins moved the study of the demography of the ancient Roman world into a new era with his demonstration that 'ages at death derived from Roman tombstones cannot be used to estimate expectation of life at birth or at subsequent ages'.
