A Life Scientific: The memoirs of a natural scientist

After National Service with the Royal Navy, Bernard Donovan embarked on a scientific career, becoming one of the UK's most prominent neuroendocrinologists, which led to him mixing with the top people in his field in the UK and many other countries and becoming editor of a leading scientific journal. His final professional achievement was the publishing of an authoritative biography of Solly Zuckerman, one of the twentieth century's most acclaimed biologists. This is the story of Bernard Donovan's professional and personal life, from growing up as a schoolboy in London to marriage (twice), fatherhood and the many adventures of his scientific career.
