Rationalizing Epidemics
Meanings and Uses of American Indian Mortality since 1600
Ever since their arrival in North America, European colonists and their descendants have struggled to explain the epidemics that decimated native populations. Jones examines crucial episodes in this history, from Puritan responses to Indian depopulation to programs to test new antibiotics and implement modern medicine on the Navajo reservation.
