The book explores the challenges of addressing emerging microbes, a concept that arose as new diseases and previously eradicated viruses reemerged. It delves into the U.S. government's efforts to confront these biological threats, highlighting the difficulty of making the invisible visible. Gloria Chan-Sook Kim introduces the theory of "microbial resolution," examining how data mining, tracking technologies, and media shape our understanding of these entities.
