Nel 1967 George Wald vinse il premio Nobel per la medicina grazie ai suoi lavori sulle cellule della rètina. Due anni più tardi gli fu chiesto di tenere le Massey Lectures, un ciclo di lezioni radiofoniche trasmesse ogni anno in Canada dalla Cbc che hanno ospitato personaggi come Martin Luther King, Doris Lessing, Noam Chomsky e Margaret Atwood.
