Scientists who become literary writers are rare Djerassi's one-man campaign to change that state of affairs has been energetic, inventive and fruitful. -- Chemistry World Chemistry World

The bookset is very enjoyable reading, and offers pleasant plots that lead to unexpected outcomes. I vividly recommend this book to all students of the exact sciences, but also to their supervisors, who can use these fictional characters and research activities to discuss the moral principles that underlie the lifelong job of scientists. -- The Journal of Astronomical Data The Journal of Astronomical Data

"We are pleased to recommend this book both to chemical educators as well as to persons interested in science in general and chemistry in particular. It should also provide chemistry teachers with an example of a neglected genre, Chemistry in Theatre, and an opportunity to show students how 'fashion in science' may influence academic faculty tenure and how chemical analysis may affect the market value of historical art object. -- Journal of Chemical Education ""Journal of Chemical Education"" Both are highly entertaining and also informative, with well-developed characters and skillful building of tension. The book makes an excellent, stimulating and often provocative read. -- Chemistry & Industry ""Chemistry & Industry"" The bookset is very enjoyable reading, and offers pleasant plots that lead to unexpected outcomes.
