Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934) was an incredible scientist--he made invaluable contributions to neuroanatomy, including some of the most beautiful scientific illustrations since Vesalius. He was also a popular author, and above all a dedicated teacher, offering fatherly advice to students and young researchers on a wide range of topics.

读完前两章我对作者的崇敬上升到一种拜大神的高度,作者对新人的苦恼和科学领域中裹足不前的种种人真是洞若观火,但后半本,尤其是倒数第三章,价值观输出太多,连研究者该与什么样的人结婚都给出了建议,不禁令人哑然。
评分曾经有一段时间,沉迷于方法论,希望找到什么破解人生难题的统一法则,抑或是试图建立一个万能价值观以不变应万变。而后,看过一本书,致青年学者,被作者一语惊醒,对于有些哲学命题已超出人脑能理解研究的范围,不必执着于理解研究一些我们力不能及的问题,以科学严谨的...
评分1. 在过去的一百年里,自然科学领域已经完全放弃了亚里士多德式的观点,即对直觉观、灵感论与独断论的推崇。 毕达哥拉斯派的信徒以及柏拉图的追随者们都喜欢沉浸在对问题的反思之中,他们认为只要向内探求人的头脑或者灵魂深处的东西就能发现某种宇宙通用的法则,获得人生之谜...

Santiago Ramon y Cajal was a mythic figure in science. Hailed as the father of modern anatomy and neurobiology, he was largely responsible for the modern conception of the brain. His groundbreaking works were New Ideas on the Structure of the Nervous System and Histology of the Nervous System in Man and Vertebrates. In addition to leaving a legacy of unparalleled scientific research, Cajal sought to educate the novice scientist about how science was done and how he thought it should be done. This recently rediscovered classic, first published in 1897, is an anecdotal guide for the perplexed new investigator as well as a refreshing resource for the old pro.
Cajal was a pragmatist, aware of the pitfalls of being too idealistic -- and he had a sense of humor, particularly evident in his diagnoses of various stereotypes of eccentric scientists. The book covers everything from valuable personality traits for an investigator to social factors conducive to scientific work.
