First Edition
Medawar, Peter Brian, 1915-1987. Memoir of a thinking radish: an autobiography. Oxford ; New York: Oxford University Press, 1986, 1st edition, 209pp., very good dust-jacket but slightly wavy along front panel, very good black cloth, attractive copy. "He's tart, tough-minded, terribly British.an imposing grand master of aphorism, argument and lightning-bolt one-liners." So Newsweek writer wrote of Sir Peter Medawar, the renowned British immunologist. "The most accomplished writer of popular-science essays," declared the Philadelphia Inquirer. Now this Nobel Prize-winning scientist and highly acclaimed author of Pluto's Republic, Aristotle to Zoos, and many other books has written a fascinating account of his own life. The image of man as a cross between Pascal's "thinking reed" and Falstaff's "forked radish," expressed in the title of Sir Peter's autobiography, stems from his humble desire "not to claim for myself as an author any distinction more extravagant than membership of the human race." But it is an exceptional life that unfolds in the pages of this incisive and witty memoir. Sir Peter describes his early years in Rio de Janiero, "the rude and barbaric life of Marlborough," Oxford in 1930s, his illnesses and recovery, and the rewards and frustrations of work in a wide variety of academic institutions around the world. Rich anecdotes abound--his early school days and family life, his musical education, his wife Jean and their family, his frequent visits to America, and much more. A sheer delight to read, this highly personal account illuminates the life of one of the most engaging and impressive men of out time -- CONTENTS: Very early years -- School -- Oxford -- Early research -- Flashbacks -- Birmingham -- University College London -- The National Institute for Medical Research -- Jean -- On living a bit longer. 9780192177377 ISBN 0192177370.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. xiii, [109]p., hardbound first edition in openweave blue cloth boards titled gilt and enclosed in its glossy dust jacket. Very good with just a hint of handling to dust jacket, an otherwise perfectly sound copy, bright, clean and unmarked. A Cornelia & Michael Bessie Book. Medawar makes a case for books being short, great length and complexity significant barriers to wide readership - citing short books that formed his own intellect, quoting heavily from English literature - Bacon, Shelley, Samuel Johnson, Coleridge, amongst those who could wind it up quickly having made their point.
