The short biography of the scientist passionate about the truth, committed to trisomy 21 patients to cure and defend their lives. He risked his professional career and lost his Nobel Prize to defend the lives of these people.

Where did Jérôme find the strength to cross the desert of ostracism and be happy? Dugast, who is the postulator of his cause for beatification, tries to explain it.

The book focuses on the heroic exercise of the theological and cardinal virtues, as a preliminary step to initiate the process of canonization. It emphasizes the intelligence of faith, the exercise of his hope, and the manifestations of his charity, as a story of love for God, his family, and his neighbor.
