Fevers, Feuds, And Diamonds by Paul Farmer
Ebola and the Ravages of History
A tightly argued set of essays and field reports that examines how outbreaks such as Ebola are rooted less in biology than in history, politics, and economic inequality—showing how colonial legacies, war, resource exploitation, and failing health systems create the conditions for devastating epidemics. Drawing on clinical experience, epidemiology, and social analysis, it reframes infectious disease as a product of structural violence and calls for ethically grounded, systemic change in global public health practice.
