Annotation

Few realise that Fleming worked only fitfully on penicillin, until 1935. The others in the story of the antibiotic's development are Howard Florey, Ernst Chain and Norman Heatley. It was these three men, who would be almost forgotten. Why this happened, is a story of quirky individuals, missed opportunities, and misplaced modesty.
