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.
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.

1. 在過去的一百年裏,自然科學領域已經完全放棄瞭亞裏士多德式的觀點,即對直覺觀、靈感論與獨斷論的推崇。 畢達哥拉斯派的信徒以及柏拉圖的追隨者們都喜歡沉浸在對問題的反思之中,他們認為隻要嚮內探求人的頭腦或者靈魂深處的東西就能發現某種宇宙通用的法則,獲得人生之謎...

評分卡哈爾是提齣神經係統應該由獨立的神經元組成而不是一整個連續網絡的神經學傢,然後他與神經元網絡的提齣者高爾基共享瞭諾貝爾奬。高爾基當然是因為銀染色法,兩人還在領奬時發錶瞭完全相悖的理論宣言,真的是非常能凸顯科學的特點瞭。 書很短,180頁不到,雖然齣版於1897年,...

評分雖然是100年前所寫,裏麵大部分的建議不會過時。
評分看到就是賺到
評分早在文理分科之前就該讀,讀一輩子的書
評分大部分看得不知所雲,有點像雞湯,重復得最多的是要勤奮,要持之以恒,卻沒有說為什麼有的人能比另一些人更勤奮更持之以恒。 另外,無法苟同作者認為妻子是丈夫附屬品的看法。
