Title: Timebomb
First published: 2002
Description: "Two billion people - one-third of the world's population - are infected with latent tuberculosis. Ten percent of those infected will develop active TB in their lifetimes. A scourge supposedly defeated by antibiotics half a century ago, tuberculosis kills more people today than ever before in history. And the numbers aren't getting any better.

Worse yet this ancient disease is undergoing a metamorphosis, adapting to our misused medications, growing stronger, becoming unbeatable - becoming multi-drug-resistant."--BOOK JACKET.
