This is a great book. It was highly informative and, at the same time, chilling, as we are seeing in real-time the effects of science under siege. The book is well-paced and written in a conversational tone. Hotez and Mann pull no punches; their message is direct and blunt. And they make suggestions for action, many of which they are already doing and leading by example. This book is a must-read for anyone concerned about the future of science in America and elsewhere.

Ironically, this criterion was established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) after the United States first achieved this hard-fought goal in 2000.

“We need higher visibility as scientists. … We’re struggling over major revisions of papers and submitting grants and scientific meetings, and we’re basically invisible by that. And part of it is also the fault of our university leaders, especially at academic health centers, who are so worried about protecting the brand of the institution that they really don’t want their scientists and docs speaking out. That creates a vacuum.

The pursuit of a meaningful and productive doctoral degree and career in bioscience hasn’t been easy of late. New findings point to: (1) the excessive time it takes to complete doctoral studies—with time-to-degree estimates of 5–7 years; (2) prolonged postdoctoral training or delayed opportunities for independent careers; and (3) limited numbers of academic research positions relative to the supply of PhD-trained scientists [1].
