Recensioner i media

"Just as it was not necessary to be an astrophysicist to feel the grandeur and scope of Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time it is not necessary to be a parasitologist or specialist in tropical medicine to relate to the drama, tragedy, and even romance of Desowitz's fascinating and provocative story…Interesting and important."
