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. --
