Summary:

"When funding for research and development is politicized, trust in science erodes and the foundations of biotechnology weaken. When science is treated as a partisan symbol rather than a shared foundation for health, patients and families bear the consequences. ... Written from the perspective of a scientist and physician, ... [the author] argues for a resilient, globally competitive biotechnology industry built to serve patients and earn lasting public trust. It offers a call to action for preserving biotechnology as a strategic asset--and a practical framework for leaders who want to strengthen the system rather than merely defend it"--Flap page 1 of dust jacket.
