The most widely known of Sinclair Lewis's novels, Arrowsmith, is an incisive depiction of a man committed to science. Martin Arrowsmith, a bright, interested young man from a small Midwestern town, spends his leisure time in old Doc Vickerson's office, eagerly consuming medical texts. He is destined to be a surgeon and researcher, but he learns that societal forces of ignorance, greed, and corruption may be just as deadly as the epidemic.Lewis' Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, part satire, part morality tale, illustrates the mystery and force of science while bringing to life a singular American hero's quest for integrity and intellectual independence in a smallminded world.
