| Review: | This well-illustrated reference book describes the lives and discoveries of the 450 men and women scientists who received the Nobel Prize in chemistry, physics and medicine between 1901 and 2001. The book encyclopaedically follows through each subject category year by year. It names the winners, gives a brief outline of their life, gives the citation for the Nobel Prize, and then describes their work. |
