Advice to a young scientist by Peter Medawar (Basic Books). The titan of 20th century molecular medicine gives well-meaning and funny (in the British sense) advice on (from the chapter headings): How do I tell if I am cut out to be a scientific research worker? - What shall I do research on? - How can I equip myself to be a scientist or a better one? - Women in science - Aspects of scientific life and manners - Of younger and older scientists - Presentations - Experiment and discovery - Prizes and rewards - The scientific process. Some details of the 25-year old book feel out of date now but it still is an excellent companion up to your first faculty position. See the following quote: "A novice must stick it out until he discovers whether the rewards and compensations of the scientific life are for him comensurate with the disappointments and the toil; but if once a scientist experiences the exhilaration of discovery [...] then he is hooked, and no other kind of life will do."

会不会是我想要的生活？了解越多纠结越深。。。
评分读PhD前一周第一次读 纪念一下 明年再读一次会不会理解更多
评分The advice is candid, generous and widely-applicable to other professions as well. 鞭辟入里，文采飞扬。 一个颇有建树的科学家竟有如此文笔、幽默感和情怀，令人敬佩、感动。
评分“Any scientist of any age who wants to make important discoveries must study important problems. Dull or piffling problems yield dull or piffling answers. It is not enough that a problem should be 'interesting', almost any problem is interesting if it is studied in sufficient depth.” 现实中大部分人还是在做dirty, shallow work啊。
