Summary
The memoir by the doctor who became a beacon of hope for millions through the COVID pandemic, and whose six-decade career in high-level public service put him in the room with seven presidents
“An eventful autobiography [and] a classic American story…Gripping.”—The Washington Post
“One of the most consequential and most prominent [careers] in American medicine in the past fifty years.”—Jerome Groopman, The New Yorker
Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous – and most revered – doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.
His memoir reaches back to his boyhood in Brooklyn, New York, and carries through decades of caring for critically ill patients, navigating the whirlpools of Washington politics, and behind-the-scenes advising and negotiating with seven presidents on key issues from global AIDS relief to infectious disease preparedness at home. ON CALL will be an inspiration for listeners who admire and are grateful to him and for those who want to emulate him in public service. He is the embodiment of “speaking truth to power,” with dignity and results.

What an American hero.
I loved this book, chronicling the life and times of an American hero. Despite working for 7 presidents, 6 of whom thought he did an amazing job, it’s unbelievable that such a body of civil duty and service is dismissed by some as meaningless. Any detractors of Dr Fauci should educate themselves and read this book. Maybe they’d learn the difference between a petri dish and a peach tree. Thanks for a great book and saving millions. If you are ever in Scotland, look me up and I’ll treat you to some fine IPA’s!!!!!!

Amazing man.
I loved listening to his incredible story. It makes it all the harder to believe what he has had to endure at the hands of MAGA idiots.
