Publisher Comments:

"A to Z of Physicists</i> focuses not only on the lives and personalities of those profiled

Book News Annotation:

This biographical dictionary presents profiles of 150 of the most important figures in the history of physics. Each essay, ranging from one to a few pages in length, includes explanations of each physicist's key discoveries, how they grew out of previous finings and created a path for future discoveries. The work itself is described, and each entry concludes with a brief list of suggested further reading. Some, but not all, physicists are pictured.
