'''Eric Weinstein:''' For my science friends, I tell them to read the āEmperor of Scentā by Chandler Burr | '''Eric Weinstein:''' For my science friends, I tell them to read the āEmperor of Scentā by Chandler Burr about my friend, Luca Turin. It talks about a renegade scientist being stymied by the journal nature, by various conferences, by the established research centers. It's just a wonderful introduction to how the dissident voice is marginalized. Because Luka is such a a genius of olfaction and chemistry, he's able to take a perspective which may or may not be true, but keep pushing it forward and battling through it. So that's one of my favorites. | ||
I have a another weird recommendation which is this book āHeraclitean Fire: Sketches from a Life Before Natureā by Erwin Chargaff, who is the guy who effectively shorted Watson and Crick. He told Watson and Crick that he didn't think that they were very good and very smart and that they were sort of they didn't know their chemistry they they weren't qualified to work on DNA. It turned out that they got it right and he got it wrong. | I have a another weird recommendation which is this book āHeraclitean Fire: Sketches from a Life Before Natureā by Erwin Chargaff, who is the guy who effectively shorted Watson and Crick.
