This edited collection offers interdisciplinary perspectives on some of the key health challenges faced by individuals, communities, and governments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Taking the Danish context as a starting point, it extrapolates to discuss the international relevance of a range of issues.

The book contains 4 parts:
Part 1 looks at the societal reactions to COVID-19, discussing issues around health communication, legitimacy, ethics, and bio-politicsPart 2 approaches the health and well-being of specific groups during the crisisPart 3 assesses how the crisis stimulated sustainable solutions to key problems, from digital methods for delivery of healthcare, to changes to the food supply chainPart 4 looks broadly at how historical developments in the study of epidemiology and current scientific perspectives enable the understanding and, to some extent, management of the COVID-19 pandemic
With contributions from scholars across the social sciences, health sciences, and humanities, each chapter provides not only insight into a particular issue, but also the theories and scientific methods applied to understand and overcome the COVID-19 crisis. It will be important reading for both scholars and policy makers, informing an appropriate response to future health crises.

Rezensionen
"Insisting that we approach COVID-19 as a real-world problem, authors explore how ideas and practices of intimacy, sustainability and science were both affected by and shaped through the pandemic. In doing so, this volume strengthens the case for inter-disciplinarity as crucial in the tackling of global crises."

- Professor Ayo Wahlberg, Department of Anthropology, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
