Summary:
"In 'Phantom Plague,' Vidya Krishnan [an award-winning journalist who has been reporting on medical science for the last twenty years], traces the history of tuberculosis from the slums of 19th-century New York to modern Mumbai. In a narrative spanning century, Krishnan shows how superstition and folk-remedies, made way for scientific understanding of TB, such that it was controlled and cured in the West."
