Product Information
Malaria is an infectious disease like no other: it is a dynamic force of nature and Africa's most deadly and debilitating malady. James C. McCann tells the story of malaria in human, narrative terms and explains the history and ecology of the disease through the science of landscape change. All malaria is local.

Reviews
"McCann's work is truly a must-read for experts in many fields, from public health, agriculture, and history, to politics and development. This book is a brilliant demonstration of the deeply local and highly adaptable nature of disease and mortality, and the ways in which the historical ecology of disease effects household decision-making and trends in food production and economic development on a national scale."-- Focus on the Horn, "Amid renewed calls for global malaria eradication, historian James C. McCann delivers a timely reminder of the complexity and resilience of malaria. His argument concerns interdisciplinarity, humility and scale. ... McCann's unique accomplishment is the incorporation of a sophisticated and complex biomedical hypothesis of modern malaria epidemiology into a nuanced historical and cultural narrative. ... It will be useful for students of public health and its history."-- Social History of Medicine, "McCann writes history with an ethnographic sensibility and a solid grasp of the science. His delightful turn of phrase and accessible writing style make this work an enjoyable read for specialists and non-specialists alike. ... [He] eloquently describes the social, economic and political disturbances central to malaria's success, beautifully explains the distinctiveness of this infectious disease, and sensitively links science with illness narratives. ...Readers will be left not just knowing more about Ethiopia and malaria, but with an analytical framework with which to enquire about malaria in other locations as well."-- Human Ecology, "McCann writes history with an ethnographic sensibility and a solid grasp of the science. His delightful turn of phrase and accessible writing style make this work an enjoyable read for specialists and non-specialists alike. ... [He] eloquently describes the social, economic and political disturbances central to malaria's success, beautifully explains the distinctiveness of this infectious disease, and sensitively links science with illness narratives. ...Readers will be left not just knowing more about Ethiopia and malaria, but with an analytical framework with which to enquire about malaria in other locations as well." -- Human Ecology, "This thorough country history ... explores malaria's etiology, effects, and the challenges of minimizing, if not controlling, its impact. Historian McCann draws on decades of Ethiopian field experience and familiarity with its historical sources. ... Fascinating anecdotes reveal local disease understandings, often blaming malign spirits (hence the subtitle). ...Malaria severely challenges public health, but this study will aid the struggle. Summing Up: Recommended." -- CHOICE, "McCann's work is truly a must-read for experts in many fields, from public health, agriculture, and history, to politics and development.

Fascinating anecdotes reveal local disease understandings, often blaming malign spirits (hence the subtitle). ...Malaria severely challenges public health, but this study will aid the struggle. Summing Up: Recommended."-- CHOICE, "This is one of the most important books written on Africa in the last ten years--indeed, in any ten years. If this book does not win a prize, then there is truly no justice....A superb topic, handled here by an accomplished historian at the peak of his powers...The epilogue is simply magnificent. Sparse, almost curt, it makes the case with blinding clarity...The past lives with us. The future is about adaptability, not progress." --David M. Anderson, University of Warwick
