| Summary: | In the world of drug design and development, Paul Janssen was a giant - responsible for over 80 new medicines in his lifetime. He was the founder of Janssen Pharmaceutica which later merged with Johnson & Johnson. This is the story of his success in building a pharmaceutical 'empire' in China at a time when the country was essentially closed to the west. A fascinating story of remarkable individuals, of business deals and scientific research, of international politics and cultural change, of humanity and ambition. |
