So he became "a 17th century thing--a general experimentalist," a fuzzy notion that, he says, Harvard found hard to accept. He transferred to Oxford, where he studied everything from climatology to biophysics, but when he wanted to write a thesis on energy-resource strategy, he was told to pick "a real subject." In frustration, he quit with a master's degree and began consulting, lecturing and writing...
