Free Radicals
(eBook)
They may have a public image as cool, logical, levelheaded types. But in reality, scientists will do pretty much anything-take drugs, follow mystical visions, lie, and even cheat-to make a discovery. In Free Radicals, physicist and journalist Michael Brooks seamlessly weaves together true stories of the men and women who have revolutionized the scientific world, and offers a fast-paced and thrilling exploration of the real process behind discovery. Brooks also traces the cover-up back to its source: the scientific establishment's reaction to the public fear of science after World War II. He argues that it's high time for science to come clean about just how bold and daring scientists really are.
