The core of this research is embodied in a novel systems synthesis methodology that allows for ground-breaking historical-scientific problem-solving. Through precise historical and scientific problem-solving, analysis and modelling, the authors piece together a holistic puzzle portrait of an ancient plague that is fully consistent, in turn, with both the surviving ancient evidence and the latest in cutting edge twenty-first-century modern medical and molecular phylogenetic science. Demonstrating the broader relevance of the crisis-beset world of the third-century Roman Empire in providing guiding and cautionary historical lessons for the present, this innovative book provides fascinating insights for students and scholars across a range of disciplines. Mark Orsag is Professor of European and Interdisciplinary History and Chair of the History Department at Doane University in the USA. Prior to this, he studied at Carnegie-Mellon University, Pennsylvania State University, and Michigan State University. Mark?s research is centered at the nexus of history and the natural sciences. Dr. Amanda McKinney is the founder/executive director of the Institute for Human and Planetary Health in the USA. She is a triple board-certified physician with a medical degree from the University of Nebraska and residency/fellowship training at the University of California-Irvine. She is a Collaborator in the Planetary Limits Academic Network, which ?aims to raise awareness about critical systemic challenges facing the human endeavor.? Her ongoing research encompasses both plant medicine and how planetary limits will impact US healthcare. DeeAnn M. Reeder is Professor of Biology at Bucknell University in the USA. She is a wildlife biologist who studies disease ecology, behavior, physiology, and conservation. Having previously studied at UC Berkeley, UC Davis and Boston University, DeeAnn?s current research explores the relationships between bat health, ecosystem health and human disease risk. She holds a research position at the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC. 606 $aEurope?History?To 476 606 $aMedicine?History 606 $aScience?History 606 $aHistoriography 606 $aHistory?Methodology 606 $aPathology 606 $aEpidemiology 606 $aHistory of Ancient Europe 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aHistoriography and Method 606 $aPathology 606 $aEpidemiology 615 0$aEurope?History?To 476. 615 0$aMedicine?History. 615 0$aScience?History. 615 0$aHistoriography. 615 0$aHistory?Methodology. 615 0$aPathology. 615 0$aEpidemiology. 615 14$aHistory of Ancient Europe. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistoriography and Method. 615 24$aPathology. 615 24$aEpidemiology. 676 $a614.5732 700 $aOrsag$b Mark$01349804 701 $aMcKinney$b Amanda E$01349805 701 $aReeder$b DeeAnn M$01349806 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910686791503321 996 $aInterdisciplinary Insights from the Plague of Cyprian$93087625 997 $aUNINA
