Eminent Hungarians
Angebote / Angebote:
Watch out, there's a Hungarian about! As this lighthearted look at the phenomenon of famous Hungarians shows this is a small nation that has always punched well above its weight, playing a major role in innumerable fields, including, nuclear physics (Teller and Szilard), modern music (Bartok and Kurtag, architecture (Erno Goldfinger) dance education (Rudolf Laban), globalisation theory (Imre Lakatos) and retail cosmetics (Estee Lauder). As Hungary emerges from the rusty shadows of the Iron Curtain into the New Europe here's a chance to get acquainted with the new guys on the block. Ray Keenoy focuses on the relevance of fifty great figures of science, thought, culture and action for today, bringing out the enormous contribution of this small nation to the modern world -- for better (the discovery of Vitamin C) or worse (the H-bomb).
