Peter is a Nobel Laurite researcher who was going to retire just after Covid hit. He put off his retirement to work on Covid and has released a book about the experience:

He wrote a book in a year?!
 
Looks like it. It covers until February this year and will be released in August - so 18 months may be a better estimate. I just ordered a copy.

I found out about it today from my doctor. Also, as luck would have it also saw an interview with Peter about it.

Thanks
Bill
