John Green, known for his bestselling novels, dives into the deadly world of tuberculosis in his latest book, Everything Is Tuberculosis. Surprisingly, Green had not considered TB a contemporary issue, viewing it as a disease of the past. However, with over a million deaths annually despite available cures, he examines the role of foreign policy and corporate interests in the ongoing fight against this ancient infection. The book reflects on TB's long history and the significant impact it has had on society, revealing its persistent threat to humanity.
"If you told me six years ago that my next book would be about tuberculosis, I would have been duly surprised."
