Over the decades, Les has owned or co-owned more than a dozen independent pharmacies and has experience opening, buying, and selling independent pharmacies throughout the state of Hawaii.

Each tells their tale of no limits. The stories will make you believe in yourself and believe you can change the world for the better and find a road to riches. Everyone graduating from pharmacy school should read this book and set a new high goal." —Michael Silverstein, author of Rocket: Eight Lessons to Secure Infinite Growth; The $10 Trillion Prize: Captivating the Newly Affluent in China and India; and others Pharmacists are experts in drugs, and drugs are an expensive and vital part of the total healthcare picture. Business ideas and concepts, along with solutions to future roadblocks and issues in healthcare are out there waiting. Entrepreneurs in Pharmacy and Other Leaders examines the careers of ten pharmacy entrepreneurs who took a leap of faith when opportunity presented itself, illustrating that there is no reason pharmacy cannot have even more entrepreneurs in the future. The pharmacy degree should be thought of as a limitless degree. And while taking that leap into entrepreneurship may not be for everyone, for some it can be the beginning of a journey toward unlimited challenges and excitement.
