Annotation |
Cowan's memoir is an engaging eyewitness account of how science works and how scientists, as human beings, work as well. In discussing his career in nuclear physics from the 1940's into the 1980's, Cowan weaves in intriguing anecdotes about a large cast of distinguished scientists, all related in his wry, self-deprecating manner.
