From an award-winning New York Times reporter, “The Wisdom of Plagues” offers essential insights from 25 years covering global pandemics. Donald G. McNeil, Jr., a trusted voice during COVID-19, shares his expert analysis on governmental and media responses, the exploitation of crises, and crucial lessons for future preparedness. Drawing on extensive experience across 60 countries, McNeil reveals the psychology behind outbreak escalation and public denial of risks. This “fascinating, ferocious fusillade” (The Economist) explores why failures repeat, from weak leadership and ignored science to societal resistance to necessary sacrifices. Discover hard-won, prescriptive advice for improving global health and readying for the next inevitable epidemic in this must-read public health guide.
