These are the reflections of a nonagenarian polymath describing the shift from a fifty-year-long career as a world-famous chemist to a subsequent twenty-five-year immersion in science-in-fiction and science-in-theater, which is virtually unique among contemporary scientists.

This book is also heavily illustrated with 94 individual pictures.
