What Really Happened In Wuhan

Walkley Award-winning journalist, Sharri Markson is the Investigations Editor at The Australian and host of prime-time show Sharri on Sky News Australia. The origins of Covid-19 are shrouded in mystery. Scientists and government officials insisted, for a year and a half, that the virus had a natural origin, ridiculing anyone who dared contradict this view. Tech giants swept the internet, censoring and silencing debate in the most extreme fashion. Yet it is undeniable that a secretive facility in Wuhan was immersed in genetically manipulating bat-coronaviruses in perilous experiments. And as soon as the news of an outbreak in Wuhan leaked, the Chinese military took control and gagged all labo...

Summary of Sharri Markson's What Really Happened in Wuhan

Buy now to get the main key ideas from Sharri Markson's What Really Happened in Wuhan In What Really Happened in Wuhan (2021), Australian journalist Sharri Markson provides evidence for the potential cause of Covid-19, with an investigation of government cover-ups and the peculiar activities within the Wuhan Institute of Virology throughout the months leading up to the start of the pandemic. The causes of COVID-19 are still rooted in mystery. Some believe the virus originated in a lab where scientists were conducting experiments on bat coronaviruses. Others claim the Wuhan Institute of Virology was developing a bioweapon for the Chinese military when an accidental leak happened. Still others are convinced the virus is perfectly natural. Yet despite the loss of millions of souls and the devastating harm inflicted upon global economies, the world still lacks definitive answers.

Hack

Graham Johnson was a fresh-faced journalist with an ambition to break the big news stories and make his name as a star reporter when an offer came in to work at a leading tabloid… he couldn't say no. Instantly, he found himself drawn into a world of sleaze, spin and corruption - where bending the law was justifiable in the hunt for the big-selling story and bending the truth was the norm. Against his better judgement, Graham found his niche in this new world and, what's more, he found that he was good at it. In his time at first the News of the Worldthen the Sunday Mirror, he made a name for himself as a man who could deliver the story, no matter what - a kind of tabloid terrorist who rifled through celebrity's rubbish bins, staked out politicians' hotel rooms, and paid-up page three girls to seduce Premiership footballers, all in the name of scoring a front-page story. Hackis a compelling and intoxicating story of one man's time in the tabloid jungle - a world that in its heady mix of sex, drugs and casual immorality is reminiscent of the City - and how he ultimately saved himself.

Made in China

The coronavirus pandemic started in Wuhan, home to the leading lab studying the SARS virus and bats. Was that pure coincidence? This book explores what we know, and still don’t know, about the origins of COVID-19, and how it was handled in China. We may never get all the answers, but much is already clear: China’s record as the origin of earlier pandemics, and its struggle to bring contagious diseases under control; its history as both a victim of biological warfare and a developer of deadly bioweapons. When Covid broke out, Wuhan was building science parks to realise Beijing’s ambitions in biotech research. Whoever achieves global leadership of the gene-editing industry stands to harvest great power and wealth. China has already challenged Western technological supremacy with 5G and in other industries. Yet this tiny, invisible virus has cruelly exposed a critical flaw in the Chinese political system: obsessive secrecy. The West wanted to trust the PRC, hoping that, as it prospered, it would become an open society. Made in China reveals how Beijing’s leaders have betrayed that trust.

The India Way

The decade from the 2008 global financial crisis to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic has seen a real transformation of the world order. The very nature of international relations and its rules are changing before our eyes. For India, this means optimal relationships with all the major powers to best advance its goals. It also requires a bolder and non-reciprocal approach to its neighbourhood. A global footprint is now in the making that leverages India's greater capability and relevance, as well as its unique diaspora. This era of global upheaval entails greater expectations from India, putting it on the path to becoming a leading power. In The India Way, S. Jaishankar, India's Minister of External Affairs, analyses these challenges and spells out possible policy responses. He places this thinking in the context of history and tradition, appropriate for a civilizational power that seeks to reclaim its place on the world stage.

Men And You

Why do smart, attractive women stay with men who treat them badly? Why do women who date musicians always end up with a broken heart and a huge bar tab to pay off? And why do surgeons have the worst chat-up lines? Intrepid authors Rikki Markson and Jayde Kelly decided to test the theory that you can tell a lot about a man by his career choices. They watched men in their natural habitat, gained their trust, stole their secrets and seldom returned their phone calls, and Men and You was born. Full of humour, fascinating insights and sexy detail, Men and You offers you a smorgasbord of menfolk, from artists to investment bankers, and tells you where to find them, what to do with them when you do...
