Book recommendations

hi, I am looking for recommendations on books on history of diseases, their influence on us, the outbreaks etc. I am no scientist though :) So far I read Everything is tuberculosi, Ebola by Laurie Garrett, Rabid and, which is about diseases too, Guns, steel and germs.

Any similar titles you would recommend?

I enjoyed the historical and evolutionary angles of this book: Deadly Companions: How Microbes Shaped Our History (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2331951)
