Ahead of the Curve: Hidden Breakthroughs in the Biosciences (Volume 2) (IPH001, Volume 2)

4.2 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

The popular conception of science is of a steady, upward climb of progress. The reality is not that simple. Highly significant discoveries often stay unrecognized for decades, particularly if they conflict with the current paradigm or extend it in ways hard to imagine at the time. Ahead of the Curve: Hidden breakthroughs in the biosciences is a fascinating collection of lost research that the editors believe are important scientific contributions.

    I didn't realise the book would be at the level of sophistication of a graduate student or higher. It is really not intended for the lay reader who is looking for state of the art papers he/she can understand without a well set scientific basis. I recommend readers not purchase the book unless they are doctoral in their pursuits at the very least.
