Book Synopsis
Though apparently in decline during the first half of the 20th century, tuberculosis has reawakened in both developed and developing countries, particularly among susceptible populations with immunodeficiency disorders.

Trade Review
An excellent book on a topic of more than academic interest. - Anthropological Science ""Anyone interested in infectious diseases, however knowledgeable, will put down this book having learned something new.... Roberts and Buikstra have compiled what is for now the definitive work on the subject." — Journal of the History of Medicine

"Truly comprehensive in scope,... This remarkably well organized book is medical history at its best.... A fascinating reading adventure." — Choice

"This is not just an old bones book and the authors have sensibly outlined the social and environmental factors which need to be considered in any major survey of this kind.... Will remain a major reference work for decades to come." — Antiquity
