Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A Firstperson Account Of A Revolutionary Scientific Discovery That Is Now Helping To Unravel The Mysteries Of Brain Diseasesin 1997, Stanley B. Prusiner Received A Nobel Prize, The World'S Most Prestigious Award For Achievement In Physiology Or Medicine. That He Was The Sole Recipient Of The Award For The Year Was Entirely Appropriate. His Struggle To Identify The Agent Responsible For Ravaging The Brains Of Animals Suffering From Scrapie And Mad Cow Disease, And Of Humans With Creutzfeldtjakob Disease, Had Been Waged Largely Alone And In Some Cases In The Face Of Strenuous Disagreement.In This Book, Prusiner Tells The Remarkable Story Of His Discovery Of Prionsinfectious Proteins That Replicate And Cause Disease But Surprisingly Contain No Genetic Materialand Reveals How Superb And Meticulous Science Is Actually Practiced With Talented Teams Of Researchers Who Persevere. He Recounts The Frustrations And Rewards Of Years Of Research And Offers Fascinating Portraits Of His Peers As They Raced To Discover The Causes Of Fatal Brain Diseases. Prusiners Hypothesis, Once Considered Heresy, Now Stands As Accepted Science And The Basis For Developing Diagnoses And Eventual Cures. He Closes With A Meditation On The Legacy Of His Discovery: What Will It Take To Cure Alzheimers, Parkinsons, Lou Gehrigs And Other Devastating Diseases Of The Brain?
