A provocative examination by Eula Biss, the author of Notes from No Man's Land, winner of the National Book Critics Circle AwardUpon becoming a new mother, Eula Biss addresses a chronic condition of fear-fear of the government, the medical establishment, and what is in your child's air, food, mattress, medicine, and vaccines. She finds that you cannot immunize your child, or yourself, from the world. In this bold, fascinating book, Biss investigates the metaphors and myths surrounding our conception of immunity and its implications for the individual and the social body. As she hears more and more fears about vaccines, Biss researches what they mean for her own child, her immediate community, America, and the world, both historically and in the present moment.

The results are enthralling. --Associated Press A timely and arresting new look at affluence by the New York Times bestselling author, one of the leading lights of the modern American essay. --Financial Times My adult life can be divided into two distinct parts, Eula Biss writes, the time before I owned a washing machine and the time after.
