Nice that the #TheCovidResponse has made the longlist, but the competition looks absolutely stellar.
#TheCovidResponse
The copies of #TheCovidResponse have all gone, but there are still plenty of other rewards available including ebooks like Nicola Gaston’s Why Science is Sexist and @siouxsiew.bsky.social’s Antibiotic Resistance. Get on it!
As a reward for supporting @siouxsiew.bsky.social I've donated 6 signed copies of #TheCovidResponse. And if you want to know how important Siouxsie's case was for academic freedom in Aotearoa, I've written a piece for the NZSR on what I think it means: ojs.victoria.ac.nz/nzsr/article...
Thanks to @bwbnz.bsky.social @tepunahamatatini.bsky.social and @royalsocietynz.bsky.social for making #TheCovidResponse book tour possible. And thanks to the Canterbury crowd at Scorpio for a lively and engaging Q&A!

And luckily, @hendysh.bsky.social kept a diary. Now he has written #TheCovidResponse – an insider account of the pandemic and reflected on what comes next.
See you at Scorpio Books in Ōtautahi for #TheCovidResponse this Thursday. Really looking forward to this!

Hey folks - if you missed it at the Writer's Festival #TheCovidResponse is heading back to Auckland. Join Toby Manhire, @siouxsiew.bsky.social and me to hear about the book and what the future holds at Auckland Uni on August 25 from 6pm (doors open at 5.30) www.bwb.co.nz/events/the-c...
If you haven't already bought a copy, the first chapter of Shaun Hendy's book on #TheCovidResponse is now available for free. I highly recommend it!
If you've not yet read #TheCovidResponse, the good folks at @bwbnz.bsky.social have made Chapter 1 available for free. It covers the months leading up to March 26 2020, the day we shifted to Alert Level 4, as we tried to figure out what we were dealing with.

OK, so #TheCovidResponse is finally hitting the shelves. You can order a copy direct from @bwbnz.bsky.social at www.bwb.co.nz/books/the-co... or pop down to your local bookstore. And a big thanks to everyone who came to the launch last night! Lots of interesting questions.
