Paperback. Condition: New. Invisible Battlefield: Whether the reader is interested in the history of medicine, intrigued by the origins of the Covid-19 pandemic, or fascinated by the medical discoveries, "The Invisible Battlefield" promises to be an enlightening and memorable read. The book offers crucial insights into our prese…nt by exploring our past. The author weaves an intricate tapestry of stories that reveal the immense political, social, and psychological impact of epidemics. Unusual for a book of this genre, it presents not just an academic treatise, but also a vivid biographical and autobiographical saga that combines historical analysis with the author's unique perspective. As a stark example, the text unravels the mysteries of the pneumonic plague and smallpox outbreaks in mid-20th-century Moscow, shedding light on the complex interplay between public health crises and government control. The historical novel "Eight Days of Quarantine" reveals how the secret police, honed by the harrowing Great Terror, quickly identified and isolated those in contact with a plague patient in a covert operation, preventing the outbreak from becoming an epidemic. If adapted for the screen, this historical novel could serve not only as a gripping medical thriller, but also as a powerful metaphor for a Covid-19 epidemic. The chapters on the origins of the Covid-19 pandemic and the author's family's experiences in Venice during the horrific first Covid-19 wave read like a detective story. The book is not only highly informative, but also incredibly engaging and relatable.

Paperback. Condition: New. "Rapoport has written a remarkable family memoir about growing up in the loftiest of Soviet Kremlin medical circles, where her father (Yakov Rapoport) was a distinguished pathologist, a man of scientific brilliance, technical expertise, great humor, and even greater courage during the rule of Joseph St…alin, around whom many suffered violent and mysterious deaths. The author's tone is lively, direct, humorous, and bluntly honest about her family and the rarified scientific and political circles in which they lived and worked. She reveals the heights of greatness that brilliant Jews could attain under the Soviet system, and also the discriminatory prejudice and harms, including threats and likelihood of arrest, torture, and death, that they experienced under Stalin and his successors . This marvelous book is an accessible work of important historical memory and warm scholarly and personal analysis. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All readers."CHOICEThis manuscript offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into some extraordinary moments of 20th century Russia. In a series of entrancing stories, the book demonstrates the disastrous consequences of a totalitarian regime's intervention in medicine and medical science. The narration is based on first-hand accounts the author gathered in conversations with her father, a world-renowned pathologist, and family friends, members of the Soviet intellectual elite.As one of the leading pathologists in the country, the author's father participated in many dramatic events that were hidden from the general public. The author describes Stalin's revenge on his doctors and the fabrication of the "Doctors' Plot"; the thrilling story of the Moscow Brain Institute; the mysterious circumstances of the death of Stalin's second wife, Nadezhda Alliluyeva; the outbreak of plague in the center of Moscow and the NKVD's approach to curbing an epidemic; the fraught drama associated with the death and autopsy of the "father" of the H-bomb, Andrey Sakharov; and the world's first attempt at cancer biotherapy.In the Afterward entitled A Different Globe the author depicts the difficult and sometimes hilarious process of her family's adjustment to their new life in America.A number of TV programs, documentaries, and movies were shot in the author's Moscow apartment by Russian, European, and American media and movie companies.
