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. Soziologie Wissenschaft

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

Listening to this book by John Green felt both eye-opening and deeply humbling. It’s incredibly informative without ever losing its human core, turning a global disease into personal, empathetic stories that stayed with me long after.

A Powerful, Humbling Exploration of Humanity and Disease
