The Ghost Map by Steven Johnson



  • I'm a bit of a fan of medical history having studied it in undergrad and now for entertainment.  I was well aware of John Snow's contribution regarding cholera before picking up this audiobook.  However, even while acquainted with the facts, I learned much from Johnson's Ghost Map.
  • The book starts out by focusing on sanitation and what all made London ripe for a cholera outbreak.
