"This work provides eleven stories of drug discovery and features the scientists who made them. The outcome of the discovery work has provided novel therapies in cancer, cardiovascular medicine, antibacterial and antiviral infectious diseases, parasitic diseases, metabolic diseases, and weight control.

The tales feature creative problem solving by clever and dedicated scientists as they overcame roadblocks to success., hallelujah moments.
