About this audiobook
"Raj Panjabi is one of the smartest people around on health issues... and one of the best-placed people to guide us through this terrain and keep us safe." —Nicholas Kristof
READ BY THE AUTHOR
The essential guide for navigating crisis and uncertainty from the acclaimed physician who led the White House response to the world’s most dangerous health emergencies.
When crisis hits — a sudden illness, a global disruption, or a career upheaval — our instinct is to retreat. Yet decades of research prove that our greatest protection isn’t isolation, it’s connection.
From high-stakes decisions in the White House Situation Room and hospital emergency room to dramatic shocks of violence and illness his family struggled with in their own living room, Dr. Raj Panjabi has navigated humanity’s most precarious moments. Now, he translates hard-earned wisdom into a step-by-step roadmap. Through gripping storytelling and cutting-edge science, Safer reveals the eight practical "plays" to protect what matters most at home and work.
You will learn how to:
Navigate Fear and Denial: Use Situation Room insights to take decisive action without falling into paralysis.
Cut Through the Noise: Use science to assess your risk and protect those you love amidst the flood of misinformation.
Build Trust in Divided Times: Move from isolation to connection and find common ground.
Gain Control Despite Chaos: Adapt to change and transform vulnerability into your greatest strength.
In an era of uncertainty, you don’t have to live in fear. You just need a better playbook. Safer gives us the tools for emerging from any crisis more connected than ever before.
