You may not know it, but an innovation has made our world a better
place. The use of alcohol-based handrubs protects us from
infectious diseases and saves millions of lives each year through
safer health care. Here is the story of this revolutionary
formulation, made available without patent and offered as a gift to
humanity by Professor Didier Pittet and his team at Hopitaux
Universitaires de Geneve (HUG). From bush doctors to giant
pharmaceutical corporations, everyone can now produce effective
handrubs, cheaply and easily. Didier Pittet's medical odyssey has
taken him to the four corners of the Earth. It also reveals a new
path open to human society, one that pro- mises a radical shift
from a predatory economic system to an economy of peace. "WHO is
fortunate that Didier Pittet said "yes" when the call went out for
his help. ...] Much can be learned from the story that is told so
well and so inspirationally in this book." Dr. Margaret Chan,
Director-General, World Health Organization.
