Sir Peter Brian Medawar (1915-1987) – the greatest British biologist of the 20th century, Nobel Prize laureate, and one of the founders of modern transplantation.
A scientist, like Caesar in the famous Roman saying, is "just a man." Scientists, like all...
other representatives of humanity, go to work every day and return home, experiencing ordinary human feelings and emotions. Peter Medawar addresses the practical, everyday side of the lives of people engaged in research activities or just preparing to embark on this path. How to choose the right field of research for oneself? How to avoid excessive "scientific zeal" that can negatively affect family life or relationships with a loved one? How, finally, not to succumb to despair when a theory that seemed invulnerable suffers a crushing failure, and research repeatedly fails to yield the desired result?
And these are just a few important questions to which Medawar provides answers in his remarkable, insightful, and humorously written book.
