In his award winning novel, Miracle Man, which was named by Amazon as One Of The Top 100 Novels of 2015, author William R. Leibowitz beat Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and the U.S. Senate to the punch in exposing how Big Pharma intentionally fails to act in the best interests of the public and puts profit above all else.
Leibowitz’ best selling thriller portrays Big Pharma as having no interest in curing diseases and, in fact, opposing the discovery of cures. Miracle Man’s protagonist, Dr. Robert James Austin, the greatest genius in history, becomes a target of the pharmaceuticals industry when he dedicates his extraordinary intelligence to finding cures which eliminate the need for many of Big Pharma’s “cash cow” drugs. As Dr. Austin says, “No major disease has been cured in decades. The thrust of the industry is not to find a cure, but to create a treatment — a product that can be sold, again and again; ongoing treatment with drugs rather than cures. Keep selling those expensive pills day after day rather than eradicate the need for them.”
As Austin’s success in finding cures escalates, he becomes a marked man. Colum McAlister, the CEO of one of the largest pharmaceutical companies doesn’t mince words. “Austin is single handedly ruining our business. We need to get pro-active and do something about it. If he keeps going on like he has — the only thing left for us to sell will be tampons and laxatives. Austin is our competitor and he must be stopped.”
As Robert James Austin evolves into a modern day superhero savior, he is opposed not only by the pharmaceuticals industry, rabid anti-Western radicals and an obsessive government leader, but also by forces that are more powerful than even he can understand.
Miracle Man is a medical/conspiracy/psychological thriller that explores extraordinary genius, Big Pharma corruption, CIA machinations, metaphysical forces, and one man’s tireless quest at terrible cost to validate his life. Miracle Man has been unanimously heralded by readers and reviewers both in the U.S. and internationally. It is available in print, e-book and audio-book on Amazon, Nook, ibook and other outlets.
