Written by Novel Laureate, Arthur Kornberg, this narrative chronicles the saga of the small biotech start-up, the key players, the painstaking development of the perfect product and the forces affecting its resulting success or failure. Kornberg decries the current fashion in scientific funding (where Kornberg maintains that "the best plan is no plan"), puzzles over imponderables connected to the US Patent office and delves into the muddle of the hotly-contested PCR patent trial - the technique for which Kary Mullis was ultimately awarded a Nobel prize.
