Pasteur's Empire: Bacteriology and Politics in France, Its Colonies, and the World
Velmet, Aro (Assistant Professor of History, Assistant Professor of History, University of Southern California)

Pasteur's Empire illustrates how French microbiologists transformed life in the colonies in the name of humanitarian public health, which often had grave consequences for those living under French rule.
