Description:
Reading through the Contents of this work, you will, no doubt, ì immediately recognize names of giants of scientific discovery: ì Galileo, Isaac Newton, Samuel F.B. Morse, Darwin, and perhaps ì several others. But few readers know the extent of the ì contributions made even by those we think we know. Among the ì other names are the discoverers of planets and their moons, of ì the nature of the geologic construction of our planet and forces ì that have and continue to shape it. Here are naturalists who ì ventured, at great peril, into unknown parts of the globe and ì discovered wonders at which we still marvel. Here are great ì inventors who created the bases of our modern technology, who ì should be known and appreciated. When the major advances in ì science and technology of the twentieth and twenty-first century ì were created, the creators of those modern wonders knew the names ì and stories of those who laid the groundwork. They continue to ì pay their respect and acknowledge the debt they owe to those who ì made their own contributions possible.

This is a used book and is in Good condition.
