...trouble, Vibrio cholerae. From its source in the Ganges. Jones follows its progress to Broad Street and beyond, to the megacities of today's developing world via some illuminating detours. He details, for example, how the human body's adaptability to alcohol, a pretty good option when clean water is hard to find, became a genetic advantage and helped drive urbanization...

It has a million customers, a market share of about 60% and generated revenues of $100 million in its 2005 fiscal year. But to get there, Roshan had to make plenty of adjustments. Afghanistan has no functioning mail system or credit-card services, so billing methods prevalent in the West couldn't be used. Instead, customers get airtime by purchasing prepaid calling cards from roughly 4,000 vendors who are Roshan franchisees. In Kabul, the vendors...
