4.0 out of 5 stars
dated, but a good overview of the biz side of biotech,
By Robert J. Crawford (Balmette Talloires, France) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Gene Dreams: Wall Street, Academia, and the Rise of Biotechnology (Hardcover)
This is a book that was written in response to the initial flurry of "unlimited horizon" books about the possibilities of genetic engineering. I had read about 3 of them with increasing boredom, and was delighted to find one that actually took a more critical attitude than bland techno-boosterism. It is about the investment community, the drug approval process, and the difficulties of harnessing basic science for profit.As such, it is a very useful book, though certainly has been superceded by others in the field. |
