Quickly the world began to search history for lessons from past pandemics, and to compare the experience of COVID in different countries. This volume of Contemporary Austrian Studies is a part of these efforts, dedicated to exploring aspects of the history of epidemic disease in Austria, as well as the peculiarities of the Austrian experience of COVID-19. The essays consider earlier pandemics such as smallpox, Spanish flu, polio, typhus, and HIV-AIDS in an Austrian context. They also analyze facets of the Austrian societal response to the SARS-Cov-2 virus. Taken together, the research demonstrates how the study of disease yields important insights into the workings of Austrian society. It also serves as a reminder of the inseparability of nature and human affairs, and of the importance of a robust, global public health system to bolster societal resilience going forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Landry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1608012522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781608012527\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of New Orleans Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.70w x 1.10d","brand":"Marc Landry","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44311247683839,"sku":"9781608012527","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7ae76e5f-bb53-417c-8baf-07877525572d.jpg?v=1695721829","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/covid-19-and-pandemics-in-austrian-marc-landry-9781608012527","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
