Roger Vaughan’s cinematic technique in his biography, Listen to the
Music: The Life of Hilary Koprowski, gives solid explanations, glimpses of
research and flashbacks, all bedizened with anecdote, mirroring the eccentric
personality of the developer of the live polio vaccine and the use of monoclonal
antibodies. You may know Koprowski through the controversy over The
River by Edward Hooper (reviewed on 13 November 1999). A marvellously
lively tribute to a marvellously talented, humorous pioneer. Published by
Springer-Verlag, £20.50, ISBN 0387988491.
