Arrowsmith - Unabridged (eBook)

"Arrowsmith" is Sinclair Lewis' 1925 satire of the scientific community and how it can be corrupted by money, ego, and social expectations. It earned Lewis the 1926 Pulitzer Prize for literature (an honor he declined).

The novel follows Martin Arrowsmith, an idealistic medical student who dreams of becoming a pure research scientist. After graduating, Martin's dedication to scientific integrity is tested when he travels to a plague-stricken Caribbean island with an experimental serum and he must choose between using the rigorous scientific method (using control groups) and saving lives immediately.

"Arrowsmith" is presented here in its original and uanbridged format.
