Available Copies Details Synopsis

Synopsis The Great Scientists is a lavishly-illustrated collection of essays, each devoted to one of history's greatest scientists. From the Greek mathematicians Euclid and Archimedes, whose work is even now required reading, to the theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, the greatest practitioners from a wide range of scientific disciplines are represented here. Each essay gives a biographical background for its subject and a description of the main themes of their work, together with concise expositions of some of their key ideas. The thirty-four chronologically-organized essays in this book add up to a biography of science itself.
