Kompletný popis

Blood spoils within days - so for most of history there was no way to store it, ship it, or keep it ready for the moment a life depended on it. The African-American surgeon Charles Drew changed that. Mastering the science of separating and preserving blood plasma, he helped build some of the first large-scale blood banks, ran the wartime Blood for Britain programme, and championed the bloodmobile and the modern blood drive - work that has since saved millions. He also protested, at real cost, the racist policy of segregating blood by race. This is his true story - including an honest correction of the famous myth that he died after being refused a transfusion. He was not. The facts are extraordinary enough.
