Story
The COVID-19 pandemic isn’t over. But even as governments around the world try to get it under control, they’re also starting to talk about what happens next. How can we prevent another pandemic from killing millions of people and devastating the global economy? Can we even hope to accomplish this? Bill Gates believes the answer is yes, and he has written a largely upbeat book that lays out clearly and convincingly what the world should learn from COVID-19, explains the science of fighting pandemics, and suggests what all of us can do to help prevent another one.

Just a History Lesson
Narrator was dry and seemingly uninterested in the subject. Practically all he said was already well covered in the news and literature of today. The text gave very little insight into "Who is Bill Gates the Man "
He could be a Poster Child of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich," nearly a century past, yet this book does not deliver the QED Bill Gates.
Do it over and be original about it.
Still searching for "Bill Gates."

David did a great job at bringing this book alive. I have always been fascinated with Microsoft and Mr Gates. Wowww what a journey he had. his persistence and dedication in making Microsoft the company it is today is very inspiring. Best moments is knowing about his negotiation skills with IBM - would have loved to have been a fly in the room. Also his philanthropist work and his porch collection. outstanding listening
