He added that Richard was competitive. He explained that Richard was interested in winning because he wanted to do the best job he could. He wants to be the best for the right reasons. He wanted to make a real contribution to science through his researches.

1. His mother encouraged his interest in learning. She was his only childhood friend and companion.

She opened the world of science to him by introducing him to Dr Frederick A. Urquhart of the University of Toronto, Canada.

As advocated by the author, a first-rate mind, curiosity, and the will to win for the right reasons are the perfect ingredients tomake a scientist, an economist or historian. Reading is only an aspect of learning. It pleases the curiosity partially. A lot of reading may provide information but to reach a conclusion a person must possess good observation skills to have a pragmatic analysis of the same. So, we can say that to become a scientist, an economist or a historian a person should be a good observer and thinker. He should definitely perform experiments to test the hypotheses.
