Excerpt from the attached review: "Oh, no, not a book about the pandemic
just a few months into Covid-19. Not another series of snapshots

battles over masks and lockdowns. Nor is doom-mongering his business.
Instead “Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World” employs a wide
lens, drawing on governance, economics and culture. Call it “applied
history.” What insights does it offer during a catastrophe that
evokes the Spanish flu after World War I, which claimed 50 million —
some reckon 100 million — lives?"
We are planning to start January 4 at 7-8 pm Central Standard Time (Chicago time) We will probably use Zoom as a way to connect.
