A true insider’s look into medicine and research. We start with the Malaria Project at the Stateville Penitentiary Joliet, Illinois; 1960’s and Nathan Leopold and the process and the men who volunteered for studies and served on the staff of the Malaria Project, and to the doctors whose stories I tell with admiration and affection.

“The Physician’s Challenge is a fascinating summary of recollections from Dr. Richard DeGowin and his experience as a hematology researcher. It illustrates what has changed, and not changed, over the past fifty years with respect to a broad range of issues that are pertinent today including the science itself, medical ethics of clinical research and collaboration across disciplines.”
