Reviews

This is a multi-functional book for a pleasant read (all the more because it is written in a very approachable style), a manual for teaching the history of modern biochemical and pharmaceutical research, a material for further research (at the very least on historical methods in the history of medicine), and an introduction to the history of medicine. ... The dilemma of this book is easy reading versus informed reading. (Alain Touwaide, Doody's Book Reviews, January 8, 2021)
