Dr. Robert D. Morris, an internationally recognized expert, offers an alarming warning about the natural and man-made dangers that threaten our drinking water. Through remarkable personal stories, he takes us on a journey across the globe, from the beginnings of our understanding of waterborne disease in 19th-century London, a time when the terror of cholera ravaged the world, to the disturbing realities of today's water supplies. He looks to the future and reveals that the door to disaster is not as firmly shut as we might imagine. Morris dispels our notions of fail-safe sewage and water systems and leads us through the holes that allow pathogens to find their way into our drinking water. He reveals the shocking truth about how millions of miles of leaking water mains, constantly evolving microorganisms, and the emerging threat of bioterrorism may hold the keys to catastrophe.
