This is the first authorized biography of Dr. Mani Lal Bhaumik, a boy born into extreme poverty in Tamluk, Bengal, in 1931, who later became an internationally renowned scientist.
From a mud hut to the pinnacles of scientific achievement, his life is nothing short of a fairy tale.
As a child, he couldn’t even afford shoes until the age of sixteen. But through sheer determination, brilliance, and hard work, he rose to global fame.
Dr. Bhaumik is the co-inventor of the excimer laser, a groundbreaking technology that led to LASIK eye surgery.
He pursued research at IIT Kharagpur, later receiving a Sloan Foundation Fellowship to study at the University of California.
His career spanned roles as a Research Director at Northrop Corporation Laboratories and later as President of Cosmogenics, a company dedicated to space research.
His most recent research explores the Anthropic Cosmological Principle, proposing that the universe is incomplete without conscious life like ours.
This book captures his incredible journey from a destitute Bengali village to a life of innovation, success, and scientific discovery in Los Angeles.
Author Ranjan Bandopadhyay meticulously traced Dr. Bhaumik’s past—from his humble beginnings in Tamluk to his luxurious and secluded mansion in Los Angeles, documenting his extraordinary transformation.
