<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Kary Mullis, perhaps the weirdest human ever to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, (has written) a chatty, rambling, iconoclastic tour through the wonderland that is (his) mind"--"The Washington Post."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Here is a multidimensional playland of ideas from the world's most eccentric Nobel-Prize winning scientist. Kary Mullis is legendary for his invention of PCR, which redefined the world of DNA, genetics, and forensic science. He is also a surfer, a veteran of Berkeley in the sixties, and perhaps the only Nobel laureate to describe a possible encounter with aliens. A scientist of boundless curiosity, he refuses to accept any proposition based on secondhand or hearsay evidence, and always looks for the "money trail" when scientists make announcements. <p/>Mullis writes with passion and humor about a wide range of topics: from global warming to the O. J. Simpson trial, from poisonous spiders to HIV, from scientific method to astrology. <b>Dancing Naked in the Mind Field</b> challenges us to question the authority of scientific dogma even as it reveals the workings of an uncannily original scientific mind.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Delightful . . . joyous . . . an autobiography of the nervous system of an extraordinary chemist. --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>One of the most mind-stretching and inspirational books I've read for a long time. --Arthur C. Clarke <p/>Kary Mullis, perhaps the weirdest human ever to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, [has written] a chatty, rambling, funny, iconoclastic tour through the wonderland that is [his] mind. --<i>The Washington Post</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kary Mullis lives in La Jolla and Anderson Valley, California.
