Documenting these fascinating journeys, Breakthrough grants a privileged, behindthescenes look at the medicines that improve and very often save our lives.Foreword by Nobel PrizeWinner Harold Varmus***Utterly compelling.

I thought this book would focus more on specific case studies of drugs, but it was more historical and theoretical. While I did gain some insights, I was hoping for more practical examples. It’s still a decent read if you’re into the science behind medicine.

Disappointed with the Delivery Time
While the content of the book is insightful, my copy arrived a week late, which was frustrating. I wanted to dive into it right away. The book itself is a good read, but I wish the shipping had been more reliable.
