1. Outbreak Culture
This book delves into the complex interplay of scientific, cultural, and organizational dynamics during epidemic outbreaks, revealing how these factors can often hinder effective response efforts. Through a detailed examination of recent global health crises, the authors argue that bureaucratic obstacles, competition for recognition, and communication breakdowns can exacerbate the spread of disease.
