How to Survive a Pandemic is now out in paperback!

My newest book, How to Survive a Pandemic, is now out in paperback! This book cuts through the prevailing noise and nonsense and reveals not only what we can do to protect ourselves and our loved ones during a pandemic, but also digs deeper into the roots of the problem and tackles the fundamental question: How can we stop the emergence of pandemic viruses in the first place?

All proceeds I receive from the book are donated to pandemic prevention charities such as the The Good Food Institute and the Plant Based Foods Association. Order your copy today!
