In 1979, Abdus Salam became the first Muslim, and the first citizen
of Pakistan, to win a Nobel Prize. Branded a heretic at home, he
pioneered the International Centre for Theoretical Physics in
Trieste, a vital focus of Third World science which remains as his
monument. A staunch Muslim, he was ashamed of the decline of
science in the heritage of Islam, and struggled doggedly to restore
it to its former glory. Salam's truly remarkable multi-faceted
character is well mirrored here. The book is beautifully written,
and handles many delicate political and personal issues with
sensitivity and understanding. Very authoritative and insightful,
giving a rounded picture of a very complex man. -- Tom Kibble,
Imperial College London
