Description:

In a time long before a scientist with a lead on a promising drug would immediately file for an initial public offering, neither Fleming nor Florey and his associates ever made money from their achievements; it was American initials and companies that won patents on the processes of penicillin's manufacture and drew royalties from its sale. Why this happened, why it took 14 years to develop penicillin, and how it was finally done, is a story of quirky individuals, missed opportunities, medical prejudice, brilliant science, shoestring research, wartime pressures and misplaced modesty.
