Longshot is more than just a superb recounting of the development of a vaccine for COVID-19. It's also a fascinating dive into the business of high stakes science, a group biography of some extremely competitive research scientists, and in some ways a medical thriller. David Heath is both a gifted writer and a tenacious reporter - the only combination that could produce a book like this one. --Daniel Okrent, author of the best-seller Last Call and former public editor of the New York Times
