Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-10 00:00:00 Mohamad Imran Medawar is one of a handful of classics on my science communication book shelf. It is eloquently written and delves into many of the challenges of producing scientific knowledge for the public. Anyone with a science degree from university embarking on a career in research would benefit from Medawar's advice. If you are involved in science and you have not read it, I recommend it. Each time you open it and reread, some new insights are sparked off. Lately it provoked me to ponder the relationship between the old testament scriptures of the bible and utopias of scientific progress that scientists aspire to create. In societies in religious decline, the morality of scientists practicing science needs ethical oversight, to ensure that science is not used politically by members of society for dystopic ends.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-10-10 00:00:00 Ali Taherinejad Advice To A Young Scientist is a book by P. B. Medawar for folks keen on entering research. Medawar won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1960 for his research on why immune systems reject organ transplants. Medawar's writing is meticulous and a joy to read. Though the former half of the book deals with practical information for the newbie, the latter turns into a treatise on science and the scientific method. Not bad reading at all.
