Science, Not Art
In Science, not Art a young generation of first-class scientists - most of them Royal Society Young Fellows - kept diaries over several months which reveal, with an unusual honesty, the frustrations, comic ironies and occasional breakthroughs in the charged and highly competitive world of contemporary science. What do mathematicians actually do? How are hypotheses dreamed up and then tested in space physiology, climate change or neuroscience? And how does an intense commitment to understanding more about the world impact on scientists' private lives?
