Zusammenfassung:Autobiographies of contemporary biologists which "... stress the life histories and personal experiences of living scientists ... This book reveals the spirit of the scientific enterprise, revealing the impact of human will, talent, and personality upon the discovery process ... These chapters unveil many of the subtle variables that influence the discovery process: the ironies of fate and circumstance, and the interaction with peers and superiors. We also learn something about what motivates the scientist and may even drive him to pay an enormous price for even fleeting moments of success. We learn a lot about the role of personality in the discovery process"--Pref.
