DECEPTION
A modern-day computer scientist struggles to unlock the secrets of a mysterious book apparently written in a secret code, matching wits with a sociopathic con man who died 400 years ago.
RECOGNITION
A humble cosmologist conceives one of the biggest theories of the universe—and watches helplessly as the Nobel Prize goes to someone else.
DEDUCTION
A maverick doctor investigates bizarre ailments using a method that seems shockingly radical in modern medicine: befriending patients and asking them how they feel.
THE SCIENTIST AND THE SOCIOPATH presents real-life stories about scientists and laymen tackling theories and discoveries that will change our world.
Culled from the author’s reporting for magazines such as Discover, Wired and Seed, these tales are presented together for the very first time. This ebook includes 17 nonfiction stories and a selection of the author’s science book reviews, for a total of 60,000 words in all. Comes with excerpts of the author's other titles.
