The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History by John M. Barry

4.0

“To be a scientist requires not only intelligence and curiosity, but passion, patience, creativity, self-sufficiency, and courage… It is the courage to accept — indeed embrace — uncertainty.”

Probably wouldn’t have picked it up if we weren’t going through a pandemic currently, but it helped me connect with the book. I’ve learned so much about the history and advancement of medicine. It's interesting to see how history repeats.
