A small cadre of scientists—collaborators and
competitors—are determined to develop a vaccine for
malaria—a feat most tropical disease experts have long
considered impossible. Skepticism, doubt, and a host of
logistical and financial obstacles dog their quest. Success
may ultimately elude them. Why, and how, do they persist?
Bill Shore is a writer, philanthropist, and business leader
who knows from personal experience the rare and elusive
nature of transformative innovation. In this moving and
inspiring book, the story of these uncompromising scientists
serves as springboard for his passionate inquiry into the
character and moral fabric of those who devote their lives
to solving the world’s most pressing and perplexing
problems. What does it take to achieve the impossible? It
takes whatever it takes.
