Book excerpt: In 1964, I had the opportunity to share several luncheons with the Polish inventor of a chemical that had an unusual configuration and that targeted the site of action in the human brain, the limbic system. This chemical, which was stolen by Hitler’s men and used as a secret weapon at the start of World War II while the supply lasted, was an antifear drug. This started a chase to find, kill, or capture the inventor at a time when he lost his assistant and fiancée, the daughter of a prominent Jewish family, to capture by the Nazis while she was trying to find them in the Warsaw ghetto. A Swiss national, and therefore a neutral person, helped him with the search as a representative of a large Swiss pharmaceutical research company, but he never saw his lost love again. While searching the Warsaw ghetto, he was able to help the inhabitants and witness their prosecution as well as aid them with pharmaceuticals. I promised to tell the world his story someday.
