“Kent Heckenlively and Judy Mikovits are the new dynamic duo fighting corruption in science.” —Ben Garrison, America’s #1 political satirist

Dr. Judy Mikovits is a modern-day Rosalind Franklin, a brilliant researcher shaking up the old boys’ club of science with her groundbreaking discoveries. And like many women who have trespassed into the world of men, she uncovered decades-old secrets that many would prefer to stay buried.

From her doctoral thesis, which changed the treatment of HIV-AIDS, saving the lives of millions, including basketball great Magic Johnson, to her spectacular discovery of a new family of human retroviruses, and her latest research which points to a new golden age of health, Dr. Mikovits has always been on the leading edge of science.

With the brilliant wit one might expect if Erin Brockovich had a doctorate in molecular biology, Dr. Mikovits has seen the best and worst of science. When she was part of the research community that turned HIV-AIDS from a fatal disease into a manageable one, she saw science at its best. But when her investigations questioned whether the use of animal tissue in medical research were unleashing devastating plagues of chronic diseases, such as autism and chronic fatigue syndrome, she saw science at its worst. If her suspicions are correct, we are looking at a complete realignment of scientific practices, including how we study and treat human disease.

Recounting her nearly four decades in science, including her collaboration of more than thirty-five years with Dr. Frank Ruscetti, one of the founders of the field of human retrovirology, this is a behind the scenes look at the issues and egos which will determine the future health of humanity.

Ratings and reviews

Amazing book so much inside and info I respect this woman for giving everyone behind the scenes a back door left open her putting us in her shoes to show us what's going on with the real science behind these vaccines that are clearly not safe because of things that are being put in them can there be safe vaccines I believe so but I would only feel that can become a real thing when a real scientist who loves her job and wants the absolute best for all and everyone who would ever get a vaccine shot.

Must read! I've always assumed there was corruption, but this book sealed the deal! Now that I opened my eyes to this there is a lot of collaborating information out there!! Shame on whoever edits for wikipedia. I guess if you have enough $ you can make them write anything!!

I'm glad there are still brave, truthful people like this scientist. My heart breaks for what they have done to her, for sharing knowledge meant to save people.
