Hermann von Helmholtz, Hideki Yukawa, Ernst Mach, J.B.S. Haldane, Steven Weinberg, Peter Doherty, C.V. Raman, Sylvester James Gates, and many more deliver witty, irreverent, thoughtful, and profound advice to scientists of all kinds and abilities. Whether you are a science hobbyist, an undergraduate doing your first lab work, a postdoc, or a seasoned professional, these essays will help point you in the direction of insight and discovery.
