The Most Wanted Man in China: My Journey from Scientist to Enemy of the State is the autobiography of the Chinese astrophysicist and activist Fang Lizhi.

He then begins the book with a review of his family origins, before delving into the politics, science and personal relationships of his life as a Communist Party member and physicist through the Anti-Rightist Campaign, Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution.

Fang notes the animosity of the Communist Party to relativity and cosmology[2] as well as parallels between his situation and that of Galileo.

[3] Richard Bernstein said in the New York Times that the book is "remarkably cool, precise and in places even good-humored".

[4] In The New York Review of Books, Freeman Dyson wrote that Fang has "..a two sided heritage...a role model for a group of rebellious spirits...[and] the rebirth of Chinese science as a full partner in the emerging world community of inquiring minds".
