By Fiammetta RoccoThe Miraculous Fever-Tree: Malaria, Medicine and the Cure that Changed the World book by Fiammetta Rocco
Malaria comes from the Italian word Mal'aria or bad air. For centuries malaria killed millions - Alexander the Great was one of its better-known victims - and its debilitating effects have been linked to the demise of ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. The traditional remedies of bloodletting killed off many who may have been spared by the fevers. Published By on 2003
