"Paid
In Full
is a MUST READ for anyone who wants to understand the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry. This is an insider's
view of one of the most powerful and productive segments of the world's economy. Karl Peace is a mathematical genius who
applied his unique skills to develop statistical models that helped revolutionize the drug development process. Along the
way Karl made a fortune but when his wife was tragically dying of breast cancer he committed his life to philanthropy trying
to use his drug earnings to advance public health. Karl's success story is infinitely more compelling because societal
norms dictate that it should have never happened. I have practiced community medicine for nearly thirty years in the tiny
rural county of his birth. Baker County has only 4,000 citizens, is one of the nation's poorest and most rural counties,
and Karl's family was at the bottom of the heap. Neither parent finished grade school. His father was an abusive sharecropper.
Somehow fate determined genius would be born to this family in a one room shack without running water, electricity or even
screens on the windows. Nurtured by an endless supply of maternal love, a teacher who recognized his spark of genius and an
indomitable will, Karl beat the odds to become one of America's "Best and Brightest." Hollywood has never made
this movie, as no one would believe it could happen in real life! I had to see it with my own eyes and now you can also. Yes,
the American Dream can still happen...Paid In Full describes how."

"Paid In Full is an inspirational story
of one man's journey to overcome the challenges of life in order to make a difference in the lives of others. This is
the story of a modern day hero. Faced with hardships, discrimination, and emotional loss, Karl Peace's journey is a testimony
of what a person can accomplish when they devote themselves to the pursuit of excellence. Moreover, his many acts of compassion
and genuine care throughout his life's journey for those who are less fortunate speak volumes about his character. Paid In Full provides a wonderful example
to our society about putting others before oneself, a value that seems to have gone by the wayside in our modern day society."

"Paid In Full, the autobiography of Karl Peace, is an inspiring and powerful story of the triumph of the human spirit. Filled with honesty and insight, he tells of his rise from South Georgia sharecropper son to the heights of success and recognition. Yet, this is much more than just another Horatio Alger story. While Dr. Peace has certainly risen above his circumstances, his life is one of giving more than getting and the power of generosity to change lives. Paid In Full is an inspiration and a guide to success -- and a good story well told."
