This review is from: Noguchi and His Patrons (Hardcover)

Wow! It's the very book you should buy and read right now. This book is about Dr.Noguchi Hideo,prominent Japanese molecular bacteriologist. He spent his whole life to the medical field and died of yellow fever while he was conducting a reseach in Africa. His life is so extraordinary but often painful. This book shows all the hardships and successes he had for his life time. Anyone interested in the medical study will regret it if he or she loses this chance to see Dr.Noguchi's great accomplishments.
