Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Book Mass market paperback, near fine in blue pictorial wraps. unmarked. 459 pp. includes biography of Lewis. Probably the first "scientific" novel--explores medical and scientific themes in a fictional way and it is difficult to think of an earlier book that does this. Although he was not a doctor, Sinclair Lewis's father was and he was greatly helped in the preparation of the manuscript by the science writer Paul de Kruif. It was de Kruif who brings a reality to the book that is almost biographical.

Most of the novel revolves around Martin Arrowsmith's changing understanding of medicine. Should he make money, heal the sick, or try to understand the mysteries of life? By the end of the novel, he opts for the latter as his life pursuit. He keeps moving to larger cities, but his final move is to the woods of Vermont where he returns to pure science. This novel brought Sinclair Lewis the Pulitzer prize in 1925 which he refused.
