Is it possible to be passionate about politics, football or R&B and still be a creative scientist? In this entertaining and inspiring account, Nobel Prize winner Peter Doherty offers readers an insider's guide into discovery science and the individuals who work in it. Starting with the story of his own career-its improbable origins in the outer suburbs of Brisbane, and its progression to a breakthrough discovery about how human immunity works, Doherty explores the realities of a life in science. How research projects are selected; how discovery science is resourced and organised; the big problems it is trying to solve; and the rewards and pitfalls of a career in scientific research: all these are explored in The Beginner's Guide to Winning the Nobel Prize. Doherty gives readers an insight into the issues that make him tick including his belief that the mission of science is to help make the world a better place to live in. He also essays answers to some of the great questions of our age. Are Nobel Prize winners exceptional human beings or just lucky? Are GMO crops really dangerous? Why can't scientists and born-again Christians get along?

Descrizione libro Paperback. 1. Is it possible to be passionate about politics, football or hip hop and still be a creative scientist? In this witty and passionate account of life as one of the world's leading scientists, the Nobel Prize winner Professor Peter Doherty offers readers an insider's guide into just what research scientists do all day. Along the way he answers some of the great questions of our age. Doherty argues that few of us understand how science works, or what motivates those who do it for a living. The urge to discover and to experiment is one of the most basic human drives and yet not everyone is intrigued by discovery. So how do we decide if we belong in the camp of the conservatives or the innovators? "The Beginner's Guide to Winning the Nobel Prize" argues the case for engaged science, for integrity, creativity and the principle of working for the common good. This is a used book in very good condition, meaning that it shows only minor signs of wear and has no significant damage.Most of our images are sourced automatically, so the book cover shown might be different to the edition we have in stock.
