The vague outline of a book based  on  ca  se histories of suc- cessful scientists emerged slowly in discussions with col- leagues during a decade of exhausting research associated with the creation of  an  earlier book titled  Winning  the  Games  Scien- tists  Play.  The perception grew to overwhelming proportions that  success in science is closely linked to pleasure in the prac- tice of science,  but  that this simple observation  had  rarely been emphasized within  or  outside scientific circles.

Since these insights could  not  be  encompassed satisfactor- ily in the earlier book, the logical solution was to develop a second book emphasizing the broader horizons of successful careers of scientists. A few sampie chapters were drafted  and floated  past  carefully selected colleagues. The response could not  be  described as wildly enthusiastic,  but  good sense dicta ted that  the project  be  continued. Extensive field research was nec- essary to test the basic premises  and  the initial perceptions. The best data  and  the most brilliant insights were gained dur- ing late evening cocktail parties  at  professional meetings. Other good insights were acquired during "twilight sleep" while particularly boring scientific papers were being pre- sented in dimly lit session rooms at those same meetings.
However, much of the factual base for the book was accumu- lated through detailed conversations resulting in oral case his- tories gathered over  aperiod  of several years. The present doc- ument  thus has a reasonable quantitative foundation, although its factual base could hardly  be  described as "statistically robust."
As the following pages will attest, this book is dearly, obviously,  and  emphatically  not  an  attempt  at  autobiography; rather it is a tale told  by  an  innocent, sometimes gullible observer of scientists in their preferred habitats.  It  is an account of some of the reasons for success in science, based  on  exten- sive scrutiny of those  who  seem to  be  contributing to knowl- edge  and  enjoying their profession.
Books of this kind are of course based  on  perceptions- which can vary greatly from  one  observer to another. This is a sagittal section of the scientific world as seen by one inhabi- tant, with its successes  and  its joys in neat arrays. Similarities to perceived worlds of other analysts  may  be only coincidental.
I  want  to  thank  all the brave but securely anonymous sci- entists  who  contributed to the conceptual  and  factual base of this  book-by  example or by prolonged discussions, usually long after their normal bedtimes.
