The saga begins with Gerhard Domagk, who as a field physician for the German army in World War I witnessed soldiers' deaths and then dedicated his life to finding a way to protect other soldiers against the ravages of bacteria. Domagk was innovative in that he began to experiment with dyes, looking for their possible effects against various infections. Chapter 1 provides a historical perspective to drug discovery, looking briefly at the pioneering work of researchers such as Ehrlich, Domagk, Fleming, Ahlquist and others. |
