This book gives the story back to those people.

Darwin's theory of evolution is accepted by most educated Americans as simple fact. This easy acceptance, however, hides from us the many ways in which evolution - as an idea - shapes our thinking about many things. What if this idea is wrong? What if "evolution" is just a word that covers up scientific ignorance of how the wonders of the world could have been created? Law professor Phillip Johnson looks at the evidence for Darwinistic evolution the way a lawyer would - with a cold dispassionate eye.

For centuries, the patent has stood as a symbol of invention—a mark of genius, a reward for creativity, a promise that innovation would be protected and shared. But behind this polished image lies a more tangled reality. Patents today are wielded less as shields and more as weapons. They grant monopolies over life-saving drugs, obstruct progress in software and biotechnology, and often reward delay, secrecy, and litigation over actual discovery. In this unflinching exploration, the author traces the journey of the patent system from its noble origins to its increasingly distorted present.

In this series, we discuss how to drive productivity in biotech clinical trials and how to maximize valuation for minimal investment. Historically, R&D productivity has always been an area of focus and priority for the industry, but recent trends are particularly challenging. How do you realize this ultimate goal as protocols are becoming increasingly complex?

Join me on my journey across the clinical trial landscape. I will be accompanied by a variety of people, all experts within their field, as we seek to understand and uncover unknowns, to shape ideas and to inspire innovation and ultimately to find out how we can truly move clinical trials out of the spiralling void of higher costs and lower outputs.
