#1 New York Times bestseller • #1 Washington Post bestseller • #1 Indie Bestseller • USA Today Bestseller

John Green, award-winning author and passionate advocate for global healthcare reform, tells a deeply human story illuminating the fight against the world’s deadliest infectious disease.


AN ACCLAIMED BEST BOOK OF 2025: NPR, Scientific American, Science News, Booklist, BookPage, Chicago Sun-Times. Goodreads Readers’ Choice Nonfiction Winner.

Tuberculosis has been entwined with hu­manity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it.

In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John be­came fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequi­ties that allow this curable, preventable infec­tious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year.

In Everything Is Tuberculosis, John tells Henry’s story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world—and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.

Rarely a book has made me tear up so much. Informative yes, but so so human.

Emotional

This book caught me immediately in the first charter and I couldn't stop listening until it ended. The variety of topics addressed during all chapters is fascinating and I loved the deep dives in each of the aspects. This is so much more than a book about tuberculosis. It's the whole world from the perspective of tuberculosis.

My new favourite book

A great overview for everyone who wants to learn about the history and current status of TB infections, their societal implications and treatment. I highly recommend reading or listening to this book.

A deeply moving and informative book, and a plea for global justice

One of the most moving an beautiful pieces of literature I have heard in a long time. Which in so many ways is about so much more than TB. Told with a comforting and sometimes heartwrenching closeness making the for me previously distant topic so much more personal and showing the humanity behind TB.

A reflection of our humanity and its faults in the eyes of the world deadliest infectious disease
