Giants of Science
Just finished reading "Giants of Science" a book of mini-autobiographies of leading scientists, innovators and thinkers starting from Pythagoras to Aristotle, Galileo, Newton, to Faraday, Hertz, Einstein, and Fermi among others. It gives a brief bio of their early lives followed by their scientific experiments and innovations, which has richly enriched modern lives. Highly recommended
