THE SCIENTIST & THE SOCIOPATH
Science journalism anthology, 60,000 words
Every word of this book is true!
THE SCIENTIST AND THE SOCIOPATH features 17 remarkable nonfiction stories, some of real-life scientists tackling theories and discoveries that will change our world, others of laymen grappling with some aspect of science in their 
lives.
Along the way, there are smashed ancient skulls, dead chimps in the back of pickup trucks, flying snakes, lordly windmills, haunted warriors, and beautiful, geeky kids building us a new world, one Lego at a time.
These all-too-human players overcome their own foibles to make sense of the unknown, touching on everything from the Big Bang theory to tissue engineering, human evolution to cryptography, strange animals, robots, and the secret of human ingenuity.
Culled from my extensive reporting for magazines such as Discover, Wired and Seed, these tales are bundled together for the very first time. This collection includes two never-before-seen stories.
