To say that Carl Djerassi is one of the most prolific scientists ever to have lived on this planet is would be an understatement to the true nature of the kind of human being he was. In ad-dition to his more than 1,200 articles published in specialized journals and having won all the accolades from the American Chemical Society, Djerassi was a brilliantly multi-faceted be-ing: founder of various pharmaceutical companies, owner of the largest collection of works by Swiss modernist painter Paul Klee, author of more than a dozen novels and plays, creator of the Science-in-fiction literary genre, founder and patron of the Djerassi Resident Artist Program, inventor of an orthopedic ski boot, responsible for the most innovative courses at Stanford University, main character in various biographies, autobiogra-phies and one auto-hagiography, responsible for elevating the demographic explosion as a central theme at the Pugwash con-ferences, and a long etcétera (García Olmedo, 2015; Lifshitz, 2015; Alef, 2018).
