520    A deep, science-backed look at how the coronavirus 
       pandemic will change the way we live forever -- from 
       renowned physician and sociologist Nicholas Christakis. 
       APOLLO'S ARROW offers a riveting account of the impact of 
       the coronavirus pandemic on American society as it 
       unfolded in 2020, and on how the recovery will unfold in 
       the coming years. Drawing on a combination of fascinating 
       case studies and cutting-edge research from a range of 
       scientific disciplines, bestselling author, physician, and
       sociologist Nicholas Christakis explores what it means to 
       live in a time of plague -- an experience that is 
       paradoxically uncommon to the vast majority of humans who 
       are alive, yet deeply fundamental to our species as a 
       whole. Unleashing new divisions in our society and new 
       opportunities for cooperation, this 21st century pandemic 
       has upended our society in ways that will test, but not 
       vanquish, our already frayed culture's capacity to endure 
       and thrive. Featuring many novel, provocative arguments 
       and vivid examples ranging across medicine, history, 
       sociology, epidemiology, data science, and genetics, 
       APOLLO'S ARROW envisions what happens when the great force
       of a deadly germ meets the enduring reality of our evolved
       social nature.
