"Bitten" by Kris Newby. She is a well-known science writer who has Lyme disease. Very thorough book covering all the issues.
[from publisher - Rather run-on so I split it for easier reading]
"A riveting thriller reminiscent of The Hot Zone, this true story dives into the mystery surrounding one of the most controversial and misdiagnosed conditions of our time—Lyme disease—
and of Willy Burgdorfer, the man who discovered the microbe behind it, revealing his secret role in developing bug-borne biological weapons,
and raising terrifying questions about the genesis of the epidemic of tick-borne diseases affecting millions of Americans today."
p.s. I haven't read this book yet. If you do, please let us know what you think.
