Moonshot : inside Pfizer's nine-month race to make the impossible possible

Bourla, Albert2022
Books
A riveting, fast-paced, inside look at one of the most incredible private sector achievements in history, 'Moonshot' recounts the intensive nine months in 2020 when the scientists at Pfizer, under the visionary leadership of Dr. Albert Bourla, made 'the impossible possible' - creating, testing, and manufacturing a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine that previously would have taken years to develop. Dr. Bourla chronicles how the brilliant, dedicated minds at Pfizer, under the enormous strains of the global pandemic, overcame a series of crises that were compounded by social and political unrest, and reveals the doubts, decisions, obstacles, and failures they encountered. As Dr. Bourla makes clear, Pfizer's success wasn't due to luck; it was because of preparation driven by four simple values - Courage, Excellence, Equity, and Joy.
