Warnings

This book is a compilation of testimonies of people all over the world who lived through the World War Z. I´ve already read the first 100 pages of this book finishing the first part called "Warnings". As every important event, this zombie war was a consecuence of different situations that, specially in this case, went out of control and the human civilization was not able to prevent. I like this first part because it shows characteristics of society that, in fact, are present nowadays like manipulation of information, organ trafficking, corruption in pharmaceutical industry, etc. We have already get used to this conditions, that I see like problems, and maybe we dont know the impact that they may cause in an event of this dimensions. 

Another important aspect of this first part is that the fear is a natural emotion of the human being and, therefore, present in everyone. I think that at the beginning it was important to overcome this emotion to think up a solution instead of letting it take control of the situation. I think that something that would have helped a lot was to inform the real situation to everyone not to frighten them, bu,t instead, to give several measures of real prevention. 

¿Which aspect would you have change?
