Reseña del editor
In this easy-to-read series, eminent science writers John and Mary Gribbin look at the lives and work of eight major scientists. Each book is accessible enough to be read for fun but informative enough to appeal to students of science. The iconic Albert Einstein emerges as a dashing ladies' man and the greatest scientist of his time; but why did Charles Darwin wait for decades before going public with his ideas on evolution? How was Marie Curie's great work shaped by her childhood experiences of oppression under the Czars? And what was Edmond Halley, of comet fame, doing as Captain of a King's Ship and later spy for the Crown? An introduction and afterword places each scientist's work in the context of the development of their subject.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Very slight crease to corner front cover. This book is the most recent addition to the successful series which looks at the lives and works of major scientists. In an account that is both stimulating and informative, acclaimed science writers John and Mary Gribbin have woven Mendel's important work into the text in such a way as to appeal to students of science and non-scientists alike. Gregor Mendel (1827-1864) was a Moravian monk who discovered the principles of genetics and heredity, but whose work was not widely appreciated until after his death. Coming from a poor family, Mende'[s only hope of getting on in the world was through joining a monastry, where trained (and worked) as a schoolteacher, as well as carrying out his plant-breeding experiements. His results were published in 1865, exactly at the right time to explain Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection - but no Darwinian noticed them, and Mendel himself gave up his research to become Abbot of the monastry. An introduction, afterword and clear chronological table place Mendel's work in the context of the development of scientific knowledge. 78 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
