Lives of the Scientists
Angebote / Angebote:
This brand new instalment in the Lives of... series of collective biographies is full of juicy titbits about history's greatest scientists. Scientists have a reputation for being focused on their work--and maybe even dull. But take another look. Did you know that it's believed Galileo was scolded by the Roman Inquisition for sassing his mom? That Isaac Newton loved to examine soap bubbles? That Albert Einstein loved to collect joke books, and that geneticist Barbara McClintock wore a Groucho Marx disguise in public? With juicy titbits about everything from favourite foods to first loves, the subjects of Kathleen Krull and Kathryn Hewitt's Lives of the Scientists: Experiments, Explosions (and What the Neighbours Thought) are revealed as creative, bold, sometimes eccentric--and anything but dull.
