outbreak

As one raised on the north Oregon coast in a family with deep and long-standing ties to the fishing industry, and still living within a relatively short drive from it, I am perhaps a bit more aware of marine affairs than the average person. So not surprisingly, when a copy of Professor C. Drew Harvell’s “Ocean Outbreak; Confronting the Rising Tide of Marine Disease” arrived from University of California Press, you can believe that my interest was immediately piqued.
