Great reference! 11 Oct 2001

By Kelly Smith - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

In the wake of so much information circulating on Anthrax and other forms of Bio-Terrorism Dr. Brown's new book is both accessible and informative. Without being over-the-top about the threat of harmful germs, Dr. Brown's advice is realistic and his topics are relevant and carefully chosen.
I highly recommend this book.

Don't Touch That Doorknob! 25 April 2002

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

This is the perfect book for those of us non-microbiologists out there. It explains in an easy to understand manner, what's worth worrying about, what's not and how to prevent future concerns. It doesn't serve to scare but rather to inform. Its layout serves as an easy reference guide to many of the questions and concerns that most all of us have in regards to the little "bugs" hiding in dark corners of our homes.

Great guide to good and bad germs 24 Oct 2001

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

I always kind of wondered what kind of germs were on my hands and when I washed them, what was killed. Now I know. I also know every potential germ in my path. Dr. Brown writing is really accessible.
