Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

This is a deliberately disturbing book, but the author’s unapologetic moralizing is never scolding, just firmly encouraging. As a comfortable American I have had no direct experience with TB, so I am grateful for this chance to learn about the all-time #1 killer disease that still wreaks so much death and destruction in poorer nations simply because the well-to-do nations haven’t bothered to eliminate this scourge that no longer affects them.

Book is much more interesting than the title suggests. Interesting history of TB and current status. Adds human interest by weaving in the personal story of someone having TB, near death, and survives. An easy read.

If you like John Green books, this is a great read. Different than his other books but written in his own style. This is a signed copy. Something to hold onto, for years to come.

I loved reading his books growing up but this blows my expectations out of the water!! I love his style of writing and his ability to tell a story while giving you historical facts interwoven between each major point makes it all the more enjoyable! This is a must read for anyone who studies modern pandemics/endemics!

This book is such a great read. There’s so much valuable information in this book, and I learned so much. Every John Green book is written so well.
