Health & Fitness. Medical. Sociology. Nonfiction. HTML:The groundbreaking, moving essay on the coronavirus pandemic shared over 4 million times in Italy and published in 25 countries around the world-which lucidly explains how disease spreads and how our interconnectedness will save us.

"Lucid, calm, informed, directly helpful in trying to think about where we are now... The literature of the time after begins here." —Evening Standard (UK)

In this extraordinarily elegant work written from lockdown in Italy as the crisis deepened day to day, Paolo Giordano, the internationally bestselling writer of The Solitude of Prime Numbers with a PhD in physics, shows us what this outbreak really is about: human interconnectedness.
Illuminating the big picture of how the disease spreads with great simplicity and mathematical insight and placing it in the context of other modern crises like climate change and xenophobia, Giordano reveals how battling the pandemic is ultimately about realizing how inextricably linked all our lives are and acting accordingly.
Both timely and timeless, How Contagion Works is an accessible, deeply felt meditation on what it means to confront this pandemic both as individuals and as a community and empowers us not to show fear in the face of it.… (altro)

Essay van Giordano dat ons doet nadenken over de pandemie waarin we nu zitten. Geschreven in een tijd dat de pandemie ontstond. Als fysicus probeert hij vat te krijgen op de epidemie, en spoort aan om na te denken over de dag van morgen, niet vanuit de angst, maar vanuit wijsheid ( )

Koronabirusaren pandemia gure garaiko osasun-larrialdirik garrantzitsuena bihurtzeko bidean da. Bizi garen mundua izugarri konplexua dela erakusten digu, baita haren dinamika sozial eta politikoak ere, pertsona arteko harremanak eta alderdi psikikoak barne. Pasatzen ari garen hau identitate eta kultura guztietatik haratago doa. Kutsaldia ageriko adierazgarria da, ikusarazten diguna noraino bihurtu den gure mundua globala, interkonektatua, korapilatsua oso. Kutsaldi garaietan elkartasun-falta irudimen-falta da beste ezer baino gehiago.

I liked this essay. Interesting to read how the author pairs his thoughts, science, news to the circumstances in Italy during the first days of the pandemic.
It is not really a book that brings news or new insights, but it certainly is contemporary :-) ( )

Knap dat Giordano in een boekje van amper 80 bladzijden ons denken en handelen tijdens een pandemie kan analyseren. Hij analyseert rationeel wat er aan de hand is om vervolgens volledig irrationeel, maar menselijk zijn commentaar op te geven. Dit vraagt om een diepgaande analyse van dezelfde auteur een jaar nadat de pandemie ten einde is. ( )

Alle beetjes helpen, zullen we maar zeggen, om de vreemde periode die we nu stilaan achter ons hebben, te verwerken. Dat moet ook de Italiaanse auteur Paolo Giordano gedacht hebben. Dit boekje bundelt enkele mijmeringen die hij neerpende, einde februari en begin maart, toen de epidemie zich nog maar in zijn beginfase bevond. Het zijn achteraf gezien heel pertinente beschouwingen, onder andere over hoe verweven onze wereld is geworden, en hoezeer we in zo’n virustijden eigenlijk allemaal samen een collectief organisme vormen. Op het einde waaieren de thema’s een beetje uiteen en legt Giordano een verband met de klimaatopwarming, met fake news enzovoort. Mijn vermoeden is dat zijn boekje, als het een maand later was geschreven, en de omvang van de slachting in Italië en elders duidelijker was geworden, heel anders van toon zou zijn. Zijn besluit kunnen we alleen maar onderschrijven: laten we zin geven aan deze besmetting. ( )
