July 2014

Noam:


Goetz, Thomas

I know you like books about diseases, TB is really the king of Bacteriological issues. Though Selman Waksman (yes MOT) developed the first useful treatment in the 1950's TB remains along with Malaria as the most destructive infectious disease, though in the past, it was often related to creativity. I hope that this book will shed some light on the subject. It is certainly the disease with the most literary heritage.


Yonatan:
A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution: 1891-1924 


I have refrained from getting you guys history books, this does look a little daunting at first. I read this last year and I have to say it is really readable. This period in history is mostly misunderstood and the scale of events is truly momentous. Don't worry I won't send books on the Balkans any time soon.
