" Green uses the stories of real people to turn overwhelming problems into something personal and understandable ." - The Associated Press " Everything Is Tuberculosis doesn't so much tell you the story of tuberculosis, as much as it gently holds your hand and parts the curtains into one of the darkest, most bizarre, and frustrating series of decisions in world history with the other.. A quintessential John Green book: one that grapples with the issue of mortality and our conflicting desires to both help and hurt one another, all within the backdrop of the coming of age of a young man. " -Slate "Henry's story is hopeful and heartbreaking ; readers will be rooting for him and his family the whole way through." - SLJ , starred review " An exceptional combination of memoir, medical history and cultural analysis .... Memorably probes the intersections of medicine and human emotion." - BookPage , starred review " Green writes expertly of the illness's history, causes, and cure .... Makes what might be inaccessible accessible." - Booklist , starred review "In these challenging times, the global health community is fortunate to count on Green and his inspiring advocacy ." -Madhukar Pai, MD, PhD, The Lancet " A story of hope and tragedy that feels terribly relevant at a time when the global healthcare system is coming under attack." -The AV Club Praise for The Anthropocene Reviewed #1 New York Times Bestseller * #1 Wall Street Journal Bestseller * #1 Indie Bestseller * USA Today Bestseller * International Bestseller Goodreads Choice Nonfiction Book of the Year "Masterful. A beautiful, timely book about the human condition-and a timeless reminder to pay attention to your attention." -Adam Grant, #1 bestselling author of Think Again and host of the podcast Re:Thinking "Essential to the human conversation. John Green whispered the truth of humanity onto the page." - Library Journal , starred review "Charming, curious, and heartfelt. Each essay feels like its own adventure on a journey toward understanding our world and humanity's impact on it." -NPR, Best Books of the Year "Humans have an incredible capacity to love, and this book is proof that no matter how big or small, there is so much in this world to love." - Business Insider, Praise for John Green's The Anthropocene Reviewed #1 New York Times Bestseller #1 Wall Street Journal Bestseller #1 Indie Bestseller USA Today Bestseller International Bestseller Goodreads Choice Nonfiction Book of the Year "Masterful.

I loved it." -Roman Mars, creator and host of 99% Invisible " The Anthropocene Reviewed stimulates my brain while getting me out of my head while taking me to faraway places while grounding me in the wonders of my everyday. I'm so glad it's here. I need it." -Anna Sale, host of Death, Sex & Money and author of Let's Talk About Hard Things "If loving something out loud takes courage, and I think it does, John Green is Evel Knievel and The Anthropocene Reviewed is a series of ever-more-impressive motorcycle jumps." -Latif Nasser, cohost of Radiolab, " Green uses the stories of real people to turn overwhelming problems into something personal and understandable .... Green takes stock of the history, looking at the vicious and virtuous cycles that led humankind to where we are now, posing a challenge and a question rolled into one: Which type of cycle will we foster?" - The Associated Press "An enlightening exploration of the history and present-day reality of tuberculosis around the world.... A thought-provoking work. Highly recommended. " - SLJ , starred review "John Green's exceptional combination of memoir, medical history and cultural analysis , Everything Is Tuberculosis reveals how tuberculosis has shaped human culture." - BookPage , starred review " Green writes expertly of the illness's history, causes, and cure .... Insightful and extremely well and clearly written, Everything Is Tuberculosis makes what might be inaccessible accessible." - Booklist , starred review "The book uses the author, vlogger, and health advocate's signature mix of personal anecdotes, poignant prose, and deep research to tell a story of hope and tragedy that feels terribly relevant at a time when the global healthcare system is coming under attack ." -The AV Club Praise for The Anthropocene Reviewed #1 New York Times Bestseller * #1 Wall Street Journal Bestseller * #1 Indie Bestseller * USA Today Bestseller * International Bestseller Goodreads Choice Nonfiction Book of the Year "Masterful.

Synopsis
Instant #1 New York Times bestseller! - #1 Washington Post bestseller! - #1 Indie Bestseller! - USA Today Bestseller! John Green, acclaimed author and passionate advocate for global healthcare reform, tells a deeply human story illuminating the fight against the world's deadliest infectious disease. Signed edition "The real magic of Green's writing is the deeply considerate, human touch that goes into every word." - The Associated Press "Told with the intelligence, wit, and tragedy that have become hallmarks of the author's work.... This is the story of us." -Slate "Earnest and empathetic." -The New York Times Tuberculosis has been entwined with humanity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis , John tells Henry's story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world--and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis., Instant #1 New York Times bestseller! * #1 Washington Post bestseller! * #1 Indie Bestseller! * USA Today Bestseller!

- r***g (242)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufBook was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.
- e***u (283)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive.
