Description
Contrary to popular belief, Cantor concludes that the Black Death was probably two diseases at once--bubonic plague and anthrax. The author shows how these diseases affected the masses as well as specific individuals, and thus profoundly altered history. Benefits of the outbreak, including explosions in artistic and scientific thought, are also described.
