Antibiotics are weapons used against bacterial infections that have existed for millennia. The history of the first use of natural antibiotics was a long time ago, but the name and our common usage are only a little more than a century old.

Discover the world of antibiotics and how we came to understand how useful the natural components could be to help eradicate known diseases. Once you understand the past, you can view the present, how we arrived at the common antibiotics, their classes and types, and how to administer antibiotics.

You will discover that not all countries use the same names or classes, and some places do not have access to the synthetic and semisynthetic antibiotics we use in Western cultures.

Antibiotics are helpful for several bacterial infections, but they also have cautionary tales. Research studies indicate certain antibiotics can have significant side effects, called adverse reactions, including allergic reactions. Sometimes it is a combination of two antibiotics together, and at other times it is the person’s individual reaction.

By the end, you will understand:
• What an antibiotic is
• Who discovered it
• How antibiotics were discovered
• When they were found
• Where antibiotics are from or how they are created
• How they are used and administered
• The future of antibiotics
• How they have changed the course of history

You are also going to learn about adverse reactions, including antibiotic resistance that drug companies and physicians are dealing with now and will be dealing with in the future. You will come away from this lesson with an understanding of the future of antibiotics.

The future right now may be bleak when examining the current situation, but there are many hopeful researchers who wish to see antibiotic resistance lowered and new medications on the market when there have been none for decades. Antibiotics save us from deadly diseases and acute and chronic illnesses, but sometimes do not work for patients, which makes the entire story fascinating.

This book will change the way you think about and use water. Water is life. Without it, life as we know it would not exist on Earth. As you read on you will discover:

● The major reasons why water is becoming scarce.
● The prognosis if we don't make rapid and substantial changes.
● How water scarcity is already harming the poorest communities on the planet.
● How the environment is being damaged.
● How close we are to passing a point of no return.

Though much of what you will read may be shocking, there is still room for hope and a narrow window of time during which we can change course. There are things that we can do, but it is going to take a sustained effort. The book will look at what changes are being made and can be made at both a macro and micro level.

● Small steps can take us a long way.
● Education is crucial.
● Technology is moving fast and in positive directions.
● International action needs us to motivate it.
● We can learn to reduce our consumption.

As you read through the book, you will probably feel like you are on a bit of a roller coaster ride. A journey in which things at first appear to be totally gloomy but eventually culminate in a turnaround, providing we act fast. Change has to happen, and reading this book is going to demonstrate that in ways that are difficult to deny. The good news is that we can be a part of that change and, indeed, we must.

This may be one of the most important books you ever read. Don’t delay.
