An interesting interpretation of the years leading up to the mass marketing of insulin. The authors make use of interviews and old journals kept by the principal characters. They manage to keep what could be a very sad journey readable by focusing on a remarkable case of survival. Their story does leave some questions, but even those could be more dramatic licence than actual mystery.
