Celebrating early reviews of Crisis Averted

75 days until my book birthday!

I am excited to share that early reviews of my first book are coming out—and they are positive! 🥳

“[Dr. Caitlin Rivers] clearly knows everything there is to know about her subject, and she writes with clarity, insight, and authority…[Crisis Averted is] an informative, accessible package, useful as an examination of the road behind and the path ahead.”  —Kirkus (full review)

“Johns Hopkins University epidemiologist Rivers debuts with a penetrating exploration of strategies public health experts have used, or failed to use, to prevent catastrophe…a rousing testament to health workers’ grit and competence.”
–Publishers Weekly (full review)

I spent three years writing this book mostly in solitude. It’s startling but thrilling for readers to begin to meet it. I can’t wait for Force of Infection readers to get that chance, too. Coming soon on October 8! You can preorder a copy at your favorite retailer.
