Books with title Famous Scientists

The United States has been the one of the world leaders in scientific discovery for almost a century, and that is due in no small part to the contributions of immigrants. Yet new arrivals to the country have always faced some measure of hostility and suspicion, despite the fact that American success continues to be built on the backs of immigrants. This volume looks at the scientific achievements of early immigrants, from Joseph Priestley and Nikola Tesla to Enrico Fermi and Albert Einstein, as well as the contributions of modern immigrant scientists from every continent.

The mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were a time of many scientific discoveries. There were new technologies like radio waves as well as wider discoveries, like the theory of evolution, that shed light upon the laws governing the natural world. In 1999, the scientist, Albert Einstein was named Person of the Century by a reputed magazine and it was no accident. For it was the work that he and his fellow scientists did, that changed the world human beings live in. From Bose's revelation that plants can feel electricity and heat very similarly to animals, the Curies' discovery of radioactive elements, to Einstein's theory that all times and spaces can only be defined relative to each other, each scientist in this collection has drastically changed the way we view ourselves and the world around us.
