Who made us see the atom, our minds, our planet and the universe afresh? How did we uncover the mysteries of life on earth? What next? The theories, discoveries and inventions of scientists have revolutionized our consciousness. Think of gravity, evolution, relativity, radioactivity and the Big Bang; electric motors, vaccines, nuclear power and computers. Behind these breakthroughs lie the personal stories of men and women with vision and determination: singular thinkers who defied adversity in their quest for answers. This book tells the remarkable lives of the pioneers – from Galileo, Faraday and Darwin, through Pasteur and Marie Curie, to Einstein, Freud and Turing. Written by an international team of distinguished scientists, historians and science writers, it will intrigue budding scientists; those fascinated by the lives of great individuals; and anyone curious to know how we came to understand the exterior world and the pulse of life within.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 198mmItem Length: 129mmItem Weight: 300gContributor: Andrew Robinson (Edited by)Author: Andrew RobinsonGenre: Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
