{"product_id":"the-herd-johan-anderberg-9781913348908","title":"The Herd","description":"A real-life thriller about a nation in crisis, and the controversial decisions its leaders made during the Covid-19 pandemic.   First, the government instituted no restrictions. Then, it didn’t order the wearing of face masks. While the rest of the world looked on with incredulity, condemnation, admiration, and even envy, a small country in Northern Europe stood alone. As Covid-19 spread across the globe rapidly, the world shut down. But Sweden remained open.   The Swedish Covid-19 strategy was alternately lauded and held up as a cautionary tale by international governments and journalists alike — with all eyes on what has been dubbed ‘The Swedish Experiment’. But what made Sweden take such a different path?In The Herd, journalist Johan Anderberg narrates the improbable story of a small nation that took a startlingly different approach to fighting the virus, guiding the reader through the history of epidemiology and the ticking-clock decisions that pandemic decision-makers were faced with on a daily basis.","brand":"Scribe Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51154294997280,"sku":"9781913348908","price":14.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781913348908.jpg?v=1781016830","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/the-herd-johan-anderberg-9781913348908","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
