"Wide-ranging and cross-disciplinary, this book is an important critical reflection on the militaristic language that frames public imaginaries of care in times of global health emergency." (Athena Athanasiou, professor of Social Anthropology, Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences, Greece, and author of Agonistic Mourning: Political Dissidence and the Women in Black) "Living with an Infected Planet provides an astute analysis of the politics of the Covid-19 pandemic and the language through which it was framed. Elke Krasny reminds us that it matters what metaphors we invest in to give meaning to our worlds." (Emma Dowling, author of The Care Crisis: What Caused It and How Can We End It?) "Balancing feminist worry and hope, Elke Krasny's rich book leaves the reader with a call for action as much as self-reflection on the Covid-19 pandemic as a crisis of care." (Henriette Steiner, associate professor, Copenhagen University, Denmark, and co-author of Touch in the Time of Corona: Reflections on Love, Care, and Vulnerability in the Pandemic) "I was deeply moved by this thoughtful book's trajectory from ›feminist worry‹ about the ubiquitous war metaphors to describe the pandemic to ›feminist hope‹ for a genuinely transformative recovery imagined as a new care feminism." (Joan Tronto, professor emerita of Political Science, University of Minnesota, USA.)
