520    From Central and South America to a deadly outbreak of a 
       mystery virus in the American Southwest, from fieldwork in
       Egypt and the mountains of Kenya to immobilizing an army 
       unit to stop a gut-wrenching outbreak of Ebola only miles 
       from Washington, D.C., this book takes us backstage in the
       inevitable clash between biology and human lives. Because 
       of new, emerging viruses, and the return of old, 
       "vanquished" ones for which vaccines do not exist, there 
       remains a very real danger of a new epidemic that could, 
       without proper surveillance and early intervention, spread
       worldwide virtually overnight.  The possibility of foreign
       countries or terrorist groups using deadly airborne 
       viruses that are easily obtained rather than unwieldy 
       explosives looms larger than ever in the future.
