A French Biochemist - Jacques Lucien Monod

   It's has been a long time since I found someone very attractive, and interesting to be familiar with. Although it is in the subject of an intellectual journey, I can't help myself digging his information as much as I can. His name is Jacques Monod(1910~1976), and he is a French biochemist, won the Nobel Prize in Physiolosy or Medicine in 1965. This kind of curiosity has been brought by reading the book, 'Chance and Necessity' recently, and the selection was happened by chance without any probable causes. As I had read a book in the book store, I found a piece of his sentences, related to a definition of science. And by the moment, I felt urged on being interested in his works. The result: I had a chance to read his book.

   I was deeply touched by his opinion, although it was almost fifty years of age. I am talking about a science field that has been advanced so quickly that fifty years could be considered as history, not applicable to reality or recent findings any longer. But his big picture like human thoughts in a philosophical term for the past two thousand years or so were so persuasive and pervasive to be convinced in following his logics in accordance with speciality in biochemistry. 

   I am gathering his infos and works for further readings. And when I see his face in a picture, I have an impression that he is trying to say something in a personal way. 

   It's good to have the moment like this, to get indulged in people.
