The most important scientists of the past four centuries are profiled in this new set of biographies, SCIENTISTS AND THEIR DISCOVERIES. Each of the eleven books in this series tells the story of a particular scientist and the discoveries or inventions for which the person is most famous. The books are illustrated with numerous color photographs or reproductions of paintings. The up-to-date information within each book is supplemented with a glossary of key terms, guides to additional resources for more information, scan-able links to educational videos, text-dependent questions, and report ideas.
