Abstract :
Recounts the professional achievements of terahertz pioneer Philippe Goy. Philippe ranked his most important subjects as Art, Literature and Science in stated order, with Politics down at the very bottom. His lovely photographs, his six science fiction stories, and his general writings attest to his breath as a creative person. Dr. Goy has always enjoyed working things out for himself, and thinking about problems in ways that do not necessarily follow the crowd. A favorite quote is "If you agree with the majority, you might be wrong."
