World War Z – Section One Summary


            The first portion of the book lays out what has happened, before, during, and somewhat after the Zombie outbreak. The section highlights the inability of humans to communicate or recognize the outbreak and the repercussions that it had. The narrator discusses the experiences of numerous people from all aspects of life and from all over the planet, from Finland, to Montana, to Antarctica. The first conclusion society came to be that this was a sort of rabies break out because of the bizarre behavior the victims exhibited. However it became clear that this was not the case, this was a Zombie outbreak. To control the widespread panic a placebo, called Phalanx was introduced into society to keep people docile. I’m very interested to learn how people in this fictional world will react to the onset and uncontrollability of the disease.
