My first blog - why now?
Poisonous Science
After more than 40 years as an academic scientist in the field of free radical biology, I've done something really radical. My first novel is finished. It's called, "Poisonous Science." Right now it's on the computers of a few friends. I want their comments before I commit to putting it out there. But to hopefully entice some of you to read it, here's the prologue (edited by my old friend Bob Cooper):
Scientists, like professional athletes, are highly competitive people operating in a "dog eat dog" world where revenge is not an uncommon response to a perceived slight or a legitimate grievance. The ivory towers of academia are just as likely to produce "cheap shots" as a NFL stadium on a Sunday afternoon. The world of toxicology research provides the milieu for this story, but similar events could occur anywhere we find poisonous minds.
