In Losing the Nobel Prize, cosmologist and inventor of the BICEP
(Background Imaging of Cosmic Extragalactic Polarization)
experiment Brian Keating tells the inside story of BICEP2's
mesmerising discovery and the scientific drama that ensued. In an
adventure story that spans the globe, Keating takes us on a
personal journey of revelation and discovery, bringing to vivid
life the highly competitive, take-no-prisoners, publish-or-perish
world of modern science. Along the way, he provocatively argues
that the Nobel Prize, instead of advancing scientific progress, may
actually hamper it, encouraging speed and greed while punishing
collaboration and bold innovation.
