In which John shares three of his favorites from the dozens of books and articles he has recently read about the wild history and infuriating present of tuberculosis. BOOKS:

Stigmatized by Handaa Enkh-Amgalan: https://www.amazon.com/STIGMATIZED-Mongolian-Journey-Illness-Empowerment/dp/1636769349/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=stigmatized&qid=1680018420&sr=8-1 (this may also be at your local bookstore, but isn't on bookshop)

Phantom Plague by Vidya Krishnan, which includes the story of Shreya Tripathi and so much fascinating history: https://bookshop.org/p/books/phantom-plague-how-tuberculosis-shaped-history-vidya-krishnan/18123470

As for Paul Farmer's "Social Scientists and the New Tuberculosis," I cannot find an easy or reasonable way to buy it--but it should be available in most libraries and it's really, really worth reading.
