OUTBREAK BY DESIGN

A biological weapon does not need a battlefield. It needs an airport, a subway car, or a crowded market, and a head start of just a few hours before anyone notices something is wrong.
This is not fiction. Nations have built these weapons before. Cults have tried to use them. Letters laced with anthrax once shut down parts of the United States government. The question this book asks is simple and unsettling: if it happened again today, in a world of instant travel and instant misinformation, would we actually be ready?
Outbreak by Design walks through the real history of biological warfare, the treaties meant to stop it, and a grounded, carefully researched scenario of how a modern biological war would unfold, from the first unexplained fever to the global scramble that would follow. Drawing on real outbreaks, real government response records, and real science, this book gives you the clearest picture available of a threat most people have never had explained to them properly.
You will close this book informed, not frightened. But you may never look at a crowded airport the same way again.
