عمرّ gave 4 stars to Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection (Hardcover) by John Green
The story of an infectious disease that changed a lot about the world and how it came to be.

John green got a great argument to solve the problem of this deadly disease, but at the same time romanticized it !

Which brings us to a philosophical problem: how do you want to end a thing and make it look appealing at the same time?, well i think that suffering, despair, and death all have a romantic and poetic sense to them which resembles great values that come from them: courage, selflessness, and love because true love only shows in difficult times.

Diseases like: the black plague, smallpox, ebola changed the world but at the same time we don’t miss them, it’s fascinating to me how can a coping mechanism result in beautiful things like: art, poetry, novels and so much more, it truly shows you how we’re magnificent beings.

The book sends a message that we should all strive to achieve, may god help him achieve it.
