The Killers Within

The Deadly Rise Of Drug-Resistant Bacteria

Critical Praise

"The Killers Within illustrates the human consequences of the burgeoning horror posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Shnayerson and Plotkin are bang up-to-date in sketching the dimensions of the problem."
-Bernard Dixon, New Scientist

"An exciting narrative. . . . As science writing, it is, for the most part, admirably clear and accurate."
-Ed Regis, Washington Post Book World

"Compelling. . . . The Killers Within convincingly takes readers through a progressive argument that everyday germs are undergoing extraordinary transformations that could lead to global crisis."
-Michael J. Berens, Chicago Tribune

"Absorbing, compelling-and terrifying. . . . We must wake up to the danger that lies ahead. . . . You need to read-and share-this book. Now."
-Jane Goodall
