The Man Who Saved the World: The Untold Story of Dr. Maurice Hilleman and the Vaccines That Changed Everything: Relentless Quest to Conquer Disease

By Michael Webster

The untold story of the greatest lifesaver you've never heard of.
From a hardscrabble farm in rural Montana, Maurice Hilleman rose to become the most impactful scientist in the history of medicine. He wasn't driven by fame, but by a relentless, singular purpose: to conquer infectious diseases that had plagued humanity for centuries.

This book pulls back the curtain on the life of this pragmatic genius, the man who developed more than 40 vaccines and saved more lives than any other scientist. You'll discover the untold stories behind the creation of the revolutionary MMR vaccine, the first vaccine to prevent cancer, and the heroic, frantic race to stop the 1957 Asian Flu pandemic.

Through his candid interviews and unparalleled scientific record, you'll meet a man who was as gruff as he was brilliant, a no-nonsense problem-solver who fought bureaucracy with the same fervor he fought viruses. Hilleman gave us the shield that protects our children, and this is his legacy.
