"The most ceaselessly creative bioterrorist is still Mother Nature. And her microbial operatives are all around us, thriving in the shadows, ready to pounce when conditions are right. From airborne anthrax to West Nile virus, from the deadly organisms hiding in our food to the next inevitable flu pandemic, Secret Agent reveals just what we're up against in humankind's perpetual war with germs."--BOOK JACKET.
