I learned a lot of interesting facts about The Black Death thanks to this short book, such as it possibly being a combination of 3 types of diseases which spread across the world and the most probable ways the plague spread itself, through certain flees that inhabited rodents, as well as counter-arguments to those claims. Like the author mentioned, we humans have the remarkable capacity of survival and we document the events we go through, which serve as valuable information for the coming generations. This is especially relevant today since at the time I'm writing this, the world is going through the Corona virus pandemic. I believe it's very important to look back at these tragedies and learn from them in order to improve our lives today and not repeat these events that devastated millions of people. A brief overview of the many major facets of The Black Death that ravaged the world from 1348 to 1352.
