Description: This book is an account of the author's life as a geologist. Three groupings of his experiences are portrayed: his New Zealand student years where he supported himself through a degree; his working years mainly in remote parts of Australia; and finally his years lecturing in engineering geology. The title of the book accommodates the problem he carried as a bipolar and the discrimination he copped at times from some of his employers.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 194-195) and index.
