My mother used to wheel me about the campus when we lived in that neighborhood and, as she recounted years later, she would tell me that I would go to McGill.
My life as a working theorist began three months after this preliminary study and background reading, when Oscar gently nudged me toward working on a particular problem.
During my McGill years, I took a number of math courses, more than other students in chemistry.
Growing up, mostly in Montreal, I was an only child of loving parents.
