What struck me while reading this book besides the Arp saga was how prominent Fred Zwicky was in many compilations of galaxies as well as observational and theoretical research as judged by references in published papers. But since he wasn't a "nice" character not until recently has he been recognised by the media but always with some aside about his nature.
Arp had non mainstream ideas that havn't been upheld by further inquiry whereas essentially all of Zwicky's non-mainstream ideas have help up and been fruitfull.
