He was blessed (or cursed by whatever entity is in charge of making us grow through adversity) with the innate curiosity and the constant need to question the status quo. Although these attributes are officially put forward as desirable for a researcher in some utopist perfect world, in the real world, it is not the case. He felt that in high school and then at the university in Serbia, after which the feeling of misfit followed him to the graduate program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and then finally to Princess Margaret Cancer Hospital at the University of Toronto where he conducted his postdoctoral work. The book is a way to voice his opinion on how the current research environment is NOT conducive to discoveries. “He who has ears, let him hear.” – Matthew 13:9view less
