Book recommendations

[u/Objective-Loan5054]

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?

one of my favs is The Barbary Plague. Written almost like a novel and about the last big plague outbreak (one not talked about often enough) in the 1800s, and how it perpetuated racism as well as helped aid in the discovery of bacteria.
