A Split Second in Time: My Life, Times, and Works
In stock
A split second in time, but what a split second. You can live a lifetime in a split second. Rapture comes only in a split second as do escaping moonbeams.
— Teodoro C. Benigno
In his engaging autobiography spanning over nine decades, National Scientist for Veterinary Medicine Teodulo M. Topacio Jr. shares his life’s journey from his family’s roots during the Philippine revolution against Spain, to his childhood in American-era Pasay, to starting college during the Japanese occupation, to his days as a scholar abroad, up to his rise as a world-renowned teacher, researcher, and scientist. Written to inspire the youth of the Philippines to pursue the noble profession of veterinary medicine in the service of the nation, it is a tale of passion and hard work, grit and determination, and, above all, love and sacrifice.
