Recensioner i media

A beguiling combination of sociological and scientific scholarship, straight reporting and titillating voyeurism. Isis Making extensive use of interviews and anecdote, Kanigel depicts how, in a mentor-to-protege chain starting with James Shannon and moving to Bernard Brodie and then to Julius Axelrod, the legacy of creativity and empirical style has passed to Snyder and then to Pert. Science As compelling as a Jackie Collins novel, though with bigger words. Chicago Tribune
