    The Ghost Map Summary

    The Ghost Map, by Steven Johnson, is a fascinating, vivid, and compelling account of how London’s 1854 cholera epidemic shaped the field of epidemiology and profoundly impacted our understanding of cities and disease. The diligent and remarkably multidisciplinary work of physician John Snow and curate Henry Whitehead proved that scientific methods of investigation could be applied to medicine and human populations to solve problems in society, on both local and government-wide levels. After tracing all cases of cholera in the outbreak directly back to drinking water from a certain pump (the now-famous Broad Street pump), Snow successfully persuaded local authorities to remove the pump handle, preventing the infected water from reaching human…
