This book is part of the Team Spirit series.

Marie Sklodowska Curie (1867—1934) was the first woman scientist to win worldwide fame, and indeed, one of the great scientists of this century. Winner of two Nobel Prizes (for physics in 1903 and for chemistry in 1911), she performed pioneering studies with radium and contributed profoundly to the understanding of radioactivity. The history of her story-book marriage to Pierre Curie, of their refusal to patent their processes or otherwise profit from the commercial exploitation of radium, and her tragically ironic death are legendary and well known but are here revealed from an inside perspective. But, as this book reveals, it was also true. An astonishing mind and a remarkable life are here portrayed by Marie Curie€™s daughter in a classic and moving account.

The Braves' history goes back to 1871. They have been called the Red Stockings, the Beaneaters, the Braves, the Bees, then back to the Braves and have played in Boston, Milwaukee and Atlanta. Rich in baseball folklore, The Atlanta Braves chronicles the team's long history in a digestible manner and profiles King Kelly, Warren Spahn, Hank Aaron, Greg Maddux, Chipper and Andruw Jones among others. This book is part of the Team Spirit series.
