| Abstract
|
:
|
"As the first fully updated version in almost a decade, this comprehensive resource provides essential biographical information and focuses on the achievements of 2400 scientists who have made important contributions to the development of science. Rather than a Who's-Who style laundry list, this user-friendly resource is as much a book about science as it is about the notable individuals and their work."--BOOK JACKET.
