How research projects are selected; how discovery science is resourced and organised; the big problems it is trying to solve; and the rewards and pitfalls of a career in scientific research: all these are explored in The Beginner's Guide to Winning the Nobel Prize.Doherty gives readers an insight into the issues that make him tick including his belief that the mission of science is to help make the world a better place to live in.
