About Ten Lessons For A Post-Pandemic World
Product Description New York Times Bestseller COVID-19 is speeding up history, but how? What is the shape of the world to come? Lenin once said, "There are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen." This is one of those times when history has sped up. CNN host and best-selling author Fareed Zakaria helps readers to understand the nature of a post-pandemic world: the political, social, technological, and economic consequences that may take years to unfold. Written in the form of ten "lessons," covering topics from natural and biological risks to the rise of "digital life" to an emerging bipolar world order, Zakaria helps readers to begin thinking beyond the immediate effects of COVID-19. Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World speaks to past, present, and future, and, while urgent and timely, is sure to become an enduring reflection on life in the early twenty-first century. Amazon.com Review Whether or not it feels like it right now, we will eventually be living in a post-pandemic world. But other pandemics will follow. Zakaria, who personifies thoughtful, levelheaded judgement, lays out the lessons learned from COVID-19, citing the success stories and recommending improvements for a possible future where we are able to competently navigate similar threats. In part, he writes, it requires an approach where the people listen to the experts—and the experts listen to the people. —Chris Schluep, Amazon Book Review Review "With his lively language and to-the-point examples, Zakaria tells the story well, while resisting boilerplate as served up by the left and the right. … Read Ten Lessons. It is an intelligent, learned and judicious guide for a world already in the making." ― Josef Joffe, New York Times From the Back Cover Praise for Fareed Zakaria’s previous works: "Fareed Zakaria has been consistently brilliant in his analysis of world affairs but also something far more rare; he has turned out to be right. Now he has produced another masterpiece of insight."– Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs, Leonardo da Vinci, Einstein "Rarely does a young author and journalist come along in possession of a prophetic brilliance, near-perfect clarity, and a stirring eloquence that combine to inform his readers concerning what lies ahead on the international landscape. Such a person is Fareed Zakaria…In writing this book, Zakaria has performed a great service to America and the rest of the world…Readers will be greatly enlightened and richly rewarded by Zakaria’s exquisite understanding of international relationships, global politics, and economic development."– Claude Lewis, Philadelphia Inquirer "A work of tremendous originality and insight…[M]akes you see the world differently."– Timothy Noah, Washington Post "Fareed Zakaria, whose wise and perceptive editorials…should be required reading for policymakers around the planet, has written a minor masterpiece…[R]ead Zakaria to know what has, should and will happen."– Jason Burke, Guardian "Zakaria’s provocative and wide-ranging book is eminently worth reading…His book displays a kind of argumentation, grounded in history and political philosophy, of which there is precious little these days, particularly among opinion columnists."– John B. Judis, Foreign Affairs "Zakaria…may have more intellectual range and insights than any other public thinker in the West."– David M. Shribman, Boston Sunday Globe About the Author Fareed Zakaria is the host of CNN’s flagship international affairs show, Fareed Zakaria GPS, as well as weekly columnist for the Washington Post, and the best-selling author of The Post-American World and The Future of Freedom.
