"Tyshenko's qualifications as a scientist, coupled with the voice of a frontline nurse, give this work a very special character. Written in an accessible style, with solid scientific grounding, SARS Unmasked should have very broad appeal, both within the health care community, and among the general public." William Leiss, School of Policy Studies, Queen's University, Ontario "The most powerful aspect of SARS Unmasked is the personal narrative. It's an important book and the message it conveys will become apparent to everyone who reads it." Robert Brunham, University of British Columbia Centre for Disease Control
