Book excerpt: In our society, scientists are the good guys - usually. Every so often one of them goes rogue and ends up on the wrong side of the law. 'The Icepick Surgeon' exposes the crimes that researchers have committed throughout history and examines what pushes these otherwise rational men and women to cross the line in the name of science - like real-life versions of 'Breaking Bad'. From the author of 'The Disappearing Spoon' and 'The Violinist's Thumb'.
