For physicians, scientists, and general readers, Spellberg, an infectious disease specialist at UCLA, Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute, and Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, examines antibiotic-resistant infections and the need for the development of new antibiotics. Using stories of patients he has treated, he explains how drug companies have little interest in developing new antibiotics, how microbes have become resistant to antibiotics, and the solutions to these problems. Along the way, he recounts the history of antibiotics, types of resistant bacteria and infections, and causes of resistance. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
