概要

Brought to you by Penguin.

From butcher's daughter in communist Hungary to winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, this is the story of one woman's extraordinary determination and her breakthrough discovery that saved millions of lives.


Katalin Karikó began life as a butcher’s daughter in communist Hungary. Raised in a one-room home of clay and straw with no running water, she saw potential everywhere: in the promise of a seed, in the alchemy of soap, in the scarlet of a carcass.

Breaking Through is the extraordinary story of her courageous determination – first to become a scientist, and then to unlock an elusive molecule she believed could revolutionise medicine. Others disagreed, and for decades she endured demotions, discrimination and even threats of deportation. Yet Karikó persevered, ultimately making a world-shifting discovery: the mRNA vaccine technology that saved millions of lives and will transform healthcare forever.

批評家のレビュー

Few have overcome adversity like Karikó ... This remarkable memoir ... is a joy to read
[The] engrossing, touching tale ... of a scientist now recognised as one of the world’s greatest ... a vividly written, absorbing memoir
It is almost impossible not to feel moved by this story of an extraordinarily resilient woman
Riveting. A true story of a brilliant biochemist who never gave up or gave in. (BONNIE GARMUS)
Karikó's story is an inspiration (BILL GATES)
Will make you laugh, think and maybe even readjust the way you see the world (KATJA HOYER)
A classic in the genre of underdogs succeeding against the odds
Little did the public know that this feat [a Covid vaccine] was largely down to one woman's relentless perseverance. Breaking Through ... charts the painstaking journey she undertook as a woman and an immigrant to convince the scientific community to take her work seriously ... rich with colourful metaphors that bring the immune system to life ... Karikó also lays bare a startling truth: even life-saving scientific discovery is not immune to ego, favouritism and sexism
A riveting testament to resilience and the power of unwavering belief (JENNIFER DOUDNA, Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry)
The rousing story of a remarkable woman and her lifesaving contributions to medicine
