David A. Antonetti Associate Professor of Cellular and Molecular Physiology

Book Title: Siddhartha

Author: Hermann Hesse

Selection Statement:

Beyond its considerable contributions to understanding Eastern society, the book at its most fundamental level, helped me to understand my father, my son and myself as both father and son. I can't think of any other work of literature that touched me so closely or any other book I would suggest over this one for the young men at Penn State.
