C'est un suspense très limité tout de même :) Et l'attente sera brève car ce devrait être pour le printemps prochain.

J'ai eu grand plaisir à collaborer avec mes trois collègues et amis, à tel point que j'ai ensuite écrit un autre ouvrage avec l'un d'entre eux - mais je vous en reparlerai car ce sera pour l'année prochaine !

Notre but, comme dans le projet et le blog (epancopi.hypotheses.org) qui ont donné naissance au livre : discuter des thèmes brûlants liés aux pandémies, mais avec des arguments parfois peu entendus, et que l'on espère à la fois nuancés et précis !

Les sujets ? Les caractéristiques des pandémies, leur lien avec la santé publique, la prise de mesure et l'opposition liberté/santé, le fonctionnement de la science en contexte d'urgence, l'obligation vaccinale.

Merci beaucoup pour vos messages, je suis très heureux si quoi que ce soit que nous ayons écrit a pu être utile.
Concernant le livre, son sujet est différent de celui de la vidéo que vous mentionnez. Il se focalise davantage sur les pandémies et la santé publique que sur la recherche médicale.

No, thank *you* for this very useful paper (as well as your related BJPS one, one year later). One day I'll have to check your other ones and your book as well!
