Publisher's Synopsis
Almost every scientist who wins a Nobel Prize has done work of surpassing excellence. The world of science is richer for their contributions.
However, only a tiny minority of these become household names and are celebrated for their groundbreaking work by the public at large. I think that every winner of such a prestigious award should receive equal recognition; in this book, you will learn the names of thousands of scientists to whom we owe the lives of relative luxury we lead today.
