It' s the question we' ve all been afraid to ask:; What will a post-pandemic world look like when we get there? In a concise, authoritative, and gripping telling, Brian Michael Jenkins - one of the world' s leading authorities on terrorism and security and an advisor to governments, presidents and CEOs - provides a masterly account of what kind of future the planet might be facing. . . by looking at the world' s long history of epidemics and discerning what was common about their aftermath.
"This is an accessible and well-informed assessment of what comes next. " -- Publishers Weekly "With the pandemic apparently past the high-water mark, this book takes a look at what might follow. . . Jenkins does offer useful historical perspective and rightfully points out that the Covid-19 pandemic' s economic and social consequences will remain with us for a long time, as will the disease itself. " -- Kirkus "Jenkins has organized his book around themes, and as he explores them, he leads the reader back and forth through history, pointing out parallels in humankind' s responses to different epidemics. . . thoroughly researched and cogently written. . . " -- New York Journal of Books
