Abstract

In keeping with the tradition of prefatory articles for the Annual Review of Physical Chemistry, this is an autobiographical essay describing my scientific career. I begin with my background and education at Dartmouth and Caltech and follow with my half-century of research and teaching at MIT. I emphasize subjects that I found especially interesting or important, including average Hamiltonians and the beginnings of high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in solids, broadband spin decoupling in liquids, NMR at milli-Kelvin temperatures, and the exploration of basic physical principles by computer. Throughout I recall with affection my mentors, colleagues, and students.
