The book is unique in its emphasis on the road to scientific success rather than the science itself. Scientists communicate much on their science through research publications, but they tend to talk much less, if at all, on the challenges encountered on the road to success. Information on the road to scientific success is helpful to people that are considering embarking on the journey on this road or are in the middle of the journey on this road. These people need inspiration and encouragement. Unless the information is recorded, it would be lost.
The objectives of this book series are to:
Inspire people into careers in science
Provide role models for people that aspire to pursue science
Describe pathways toward scientific success
Reduce the hindrance to scientific careers
Expose the readers to a wide range of scientific fields
Provide examples of scientific success in various countries
