今日初めて入ったリブレリーでこの本を見つける。
Lake Views: This World and the Universe by Steven Weinberg (2009, Harvard UP)
その中に、"Four Golden Lessons" と題した2003年6月にモントリオールのマギル大学で行った卒業式での挨拶が出ていた(pp. 146-149)。科学者の卵に向けた4つのアドバイスとは、
- No one knows everything, and you don't have to.
- Go for the messes---that's where the action is.
- Forgive yourself for wasting time. If you want to be creative, then you will have to get used to spending most of your time not being creative.
- Learn something about the history of science, or at a minimum the history of your own branch of science.
