Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green

Recommended by Daniel
Visit

A bitter, bitter pill in a post-DOGE world, but an ultimately hopeful story about how just a little bit of money and attention could alter the course of the deadliest infectious disease on earth.

I have recommended this book so many times. Which is not something I ever imagined I would say about a book called Everything is Tuberculosis.

“I couldn’t stop talking about this book for weeks after I read it. There is so much cultural history tied to TB that I had no idea about (beauty, fashion, the feminine ideal, more!). I was astonished. And for as ubiquitous as TB is in literature, I realized while reading this book that I knew so little of TB’s origin as a disease, and how it still impacts the world today. Highly recommend.”

“This book is so engrossing! You won’t want to put it down, and then will be talking about it for weeks.”
