Breathless: The Scientific Race to Defeat a Deadly Virus by David Quammen

5.0

About the science, not about the politics. Traces the history of discoveries around SARS- COV-2, and earlier work that laid a basis for pursuing the virus. Written in a literate style, with occasional humor and the backstory of many in the scientific community, as only a person who has been following the story of pandemics for more than 20 years can tell it.
