The Premonition

Author: Michael Lewis

In “The Premonition,” Michael Lewis uncovers the unsung heroes of America’s pandemic response. With his trademark storytelling prowess, Lewis introduces us to a band of maverick scientists and public health officials who saw the danger coming long before others. Through their eyes, we witness the frustrating battle against bureaucracy and political inertia. It’s a tale of courage, foresight, and the power of individuals to make a difference in the face of overwhelming odds.
