". . . the story hinges on Prusiner's discovery of prions, 'a new biological principle of disease'. It is a remarkable tale . . . [a] testament to the staggering intellect and courage involved in one of the most exciting discoveries since the DNA double helix."-Giovanna Mallucci, Nature, "A strikingly meticulous book and a powerful effort from the heart to tell a large truth in a personal tale."-Herman Wouk, author of The Winds of War and War and Remembrance, "Prusiner does not give us the idealistic, sanitized picture of modern scientific research where cooperation and collaboration are commonplace. Rather, the author shows science today as it really is: competitive, crowded with too many people trying to get funding, involving sometimes massive egos at play instead of the search for truth, and rife with naysayers' refusal to accept new ideas in spite of the data. Prusiner shows the science game as it is too often played today, and we are all better for his sharing."--Donald F. Calbreath, New York Journal of Books, "Perhaps not since James D. Watson's 1968 memoir The Double Helix has the down and dirty business of world-class science been given such an airing . . . We are free to enjoy the spectacle of top gladiators at work in an utterly fascinating arena."--Abigail Zuger, M.D., New York Times, " Madness and Memory is a fascinating account of scientific research, discovery, and controversy that will be of interest to many readers within neurology and neuroscience, as well as anyone drawn to the creative process."-- Neurology Today, "Perhaps not since James D. Watson's 1968 memoir  The Double Helix  has the down and dirty business of world-class science been given such an airing . . . We are free to enjoy the spectacle of top gladiators at work in an utterly fascinating arena."--Abigail Zuger, M.D., New York Times, "A wonderful account of the multiple obstacles confronted by Stanley Prusiner as he transformed an unconventional hypothesis into one of the greatest discoveries of modern science."-Robert J. Alpern, M.D., Dean, Yale University School of Medicine, "Represents a unique and important contribution."--Daniel P. Perl, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, "A strikingly meticulous book and a powerful effort from the heart to tell a large truth in a personal tale."--Herman Wouk, author of The Winds of War and War and Remembrance, "A unique story, yet many elements will be familiar to scientists in competitive fields. It is a cautionary tale about how vicious science can be, but . . . it could also encourage others to stick to their beliefs and rely on careful science as they meet obstacles."-- Ellen Daniell, author of Every Other Thursday: Stories and Strategies from Successful Women Scientists, "A unique story, yet many elements will be familiar to scientists in competitive fields. It is a cautionary tale about how vicious science can be, but . . . it could also encourage others to stick to their beliefs and rely on careful science as they meet obstacles."-- Ellen Daniell, author of  Every Other Thursday: Stories and Strategies from Successful Women Scientists, ". . . the story hinges on Prusiner's discovery of prions, 'a new biological principle of disease'.

Perl, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, " Madness and Memory is the story of one of the most important discoveries in recent medical history, and it is also a vivid and compelling portrait of a life in science."--Oliver Sacks, "A wonderful account of the multiple obstacles confronted by Stanley Prusiner as he transformed an unconventional hypothesis into one of the greatest discoveries of modern science."-Robert J. Alpern, M.D., Yale University School of Medicine, "A unique story, yet many elements will be familiar to scientists in competitive fields. It is a cautionary tale about how vicious science can be, but . . . it could also encourage others to stick to their beliefs and rely on careful science as they meet obstacles."- Ellen Daniell, author of  Every Other Thursday: Stories and Strategies from Successful Women Scientists, "Stanley Prusiner is a brilliant scientist whose boldness and tenacity enabled him, against all odds and despite near-universal skepticism, to discover and prove the importance of a new class of disease-producing agents-prions-a discovery as fundamental as that of bacteria and viruses. Prions, by subverting the brain's own proteins, may play a crucial role in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases-and perhaps afford a clue to their prevention. Madness and Memory is the story of one of the most important discoveries in recent medical history, and it is also a vivid and compelling portrait of a life in science."-Oliver Sacks, "A wonderful account of the multiple obstacles confronted by Stanley Prusiner as he transformed an unconventional hypothesis into one of the greatest discoveries of modern science."--Robert J.
