A six-part series on the men who conquered disease.
3: Men of Little Faith by JOHN WILES with The early 1870s. Although a revolution is under way in the understanding of disease, ignorance and opposition to the new ideas exists at all levels. Can Pasteur or Koch find a practical outcome of their experiments that will convince the sceptics?
