Walters, Mark J. Six Modern Plagues: And How We Are Causing Them. Island press, 2004. E-brary. Web. 3 Oct. 2009. .
This book has six different diseases but i want to focus on mad cow. It tells a story about the discovery of mad cow and how the first case of mad cow.It also tells many facts about it. This is a great resource to use because it is in the MCC library under non fiction, and it wasn't written too long ago. It is also a popular work so i would say it is a reliable source. This resource will help me answer the question of wht is it and where it came from and even how it spreads.
Schwartz, Maxime. How The Cows Turned Mad. University of California, 2003. E-brary. Web. 3 Oct. 2009. .
This book also has many different diseases but the chapter on mad cow talks about where it came from and how it was discovered. However, what makes it different is that it talks about weather or not mad cow is serous. It gives excellent examples of cases of mad cow as well. This is a crediable resource because it comes forom a well known university. Although it is a little older, it is still an excellent resource. I plan to use this in a section of my paper that discusses wheather or not this is a serious problem. I also will use the cases of mad cow as examplesin my paper.
Lutey, Tom. "Beef Rule Could Get Stricter." Tribune Business News [Washington] 20 Mar. 2009. ProQuest. Web. 3 Oct. 2009. .
This article talked about how cows are treated and what they considered "safe" before. It then goes on to say that the rules were to lax and that the FDA wants to issue stricter rules reguarding beef. This is a crediable sourse because it is a well known newspaper. I will use this article when i talk about if our governmet is doing enough to protect us.
Freudenrich, Ph.D., Craig. "How Mad Cow Disease Works." 08 March 2001. HowStuffWorks.com. 03 October 2009.
This site gave all the little details about mad cow. It ives facts on where it comes from and what it is and how it works. This site is crediable because it is a well known science site and it even has its own tv show. also the author has a Ph.D which means he has spent years learning about his subject. I will use this in my paper in the paragraph of what mad cow is and what i does.
