The life of Peter Dennis Mitchell (1920–1992), like that of most people, is characterized by complexities, contradictions, and paradoxes. Biographers, to the extent that they succeed, can capture only partially the richness of the phenomenon of another human being and his or her action in the world. Our knowledge is limited, no matter how much detailed information is available. Thus this biography inevitably represents an interpretation of Mitchell’s life from several of the numerous perspectives possible. This problem is compounded by the fact that the subject was a scientist, and much of Mitchell’s creativity and passion were engaged in activities that required both a technical and a specialist knowledge. Hence, there is a need to balance the personal and the scientific, as well as to endeavor to make the science as accessible as possible to a broader audience. [download]
