I ordered your book and received it yesterday and started reading it last night. So far, I am enjoying reading it. But so many names, that I will probably not remember them.
I have been wondering about Sandoz for quite some time! I lived in a small CA town where there was a building that I could never figure out. You can not even make out where the main entrance is or actually anything about the building...the size or anything. I believe there were trees around it, seeming to hide everything. I also believe there sometimes was a certain smell coming from there...like a grainery odor. For years I wondered what the place was...there were no signs anyplace to indicate what it was. ...although I did aasume an industry of some sort. No one I mentioned it to, seemed to know anything about it either. ...even in just a small town. At the time, I had never heard of Sandoz though. Then finally, I became friends with a woman that mentioned it was Sandoz Chemical Co. and that her father-in-law worked there. I ask what they made there and she told me it was things like Insectcides. I don't recall now what all she told me they did there. I have no idea if anything else is possibly being mfg there, but have wondered why it seemed to be so shrouded in secrecy. I felt it was strange to not have any form of company sign anyplace aroind there. Is there still actually something mysterous going on with Sandoz?
