Publisher's summary

The COVID-19 pandemic is the most significant health emergency of our time.

Writing from Italy in lockdown, physicist and novelist Paolo Giordano explains how disease spreads in our interconnected world:

  • Why it matters
  • How it impacts us
  • How we must react

By expanding his focus to include other forms of contagion - from the environmental crisis to fake news and xenophobia - Giordano shows us not just how we got here but also how we can work together to move forward.

didn't learn anything new

maybe because this was written in early March and it's now mid may but if you have been paying any attention at all to the news then you will learn nothing from this.
