ABOUT THIS BOOK: Malaria is resurgent, most tragically in Asia where the battle had seemed almost won. In India, malaria cases, which were reduced to 50,000 in 1961, soared in 1977 to 30 million or more. Classically one of the greatest if least spectacular of the killers, malaria may become that once more. What happened and why are the subject of this history, which begins with the discoveries that precipitated hostilities and traces the ups and downs of the battles that followed.(Publisher).

Spawned from a background of imperial rivalry and Victorian faith in the efficacy of technology to banish both disease and heathenism from the dark-skinned world, the crusade against malaria was one of colonization and eradication. It was not until the 1950s that the eradication strategy came into question, and with it an appreciation of the complexities of nature. This interwoven tale of scientific inquiry, competition, natural and social history makes for a compelling read-with the battle against malaria still far from over.
