Dignifying Science pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Dignifying Science is the newest book from G.T. Labs that tells
true stories about scientists in comics form. This 144 page trade
paperback features famous women scientists including Marie Curie,
Emmy Noether, Lise Meitner, Rosalind Franklin, Barbara McClintock,
Birute Galdikas, and (believe it or not) Hedy Lamarr. Scientists
and non-scientists alike will appreciate the human context this
award-winning anthology gives to some of the most famous names in
the history of discovery.
With stories written by Jim Ottaviani and art by notable illustrators such as Donna Barr, Mary Fleener, Stephanie Gladden,
Roberta Gregory, Lea Hernandez, Carla Speed McNeil, Linda Medley,
Jen Sorensen, Anne Timmons and comics legends Ramona Fradon and
Marie Severin, this handsome trade paperback, complete with a
full-color dust jacket, will please readers of all ages. Notes and
references at the end lead them to discover even more on their
own!
An Eisner nominee (like its companion volume Two-Fisted Science)
and Lulu of the Year nominee for 1999, Dignifying Science has
earned praise from the toughest critics of all: the scientists themselves. Discover Magazine (February, 2000) says "In
Ottaviani's hands, cartooning becomes exciting education. It's a
tribute to Ottaviani's breezy style that one wants to dig into [the] references and learn a little nuclear physics. Now that is a
superheroic achievement." Simon Singh, award-winning author of The
Code Book and Fermat's Enigma writes: "When it comes to
popularising science, Jim Ottaviani's comic books do an excellent
job of telling scientific stories in a fun and absorbing way. His
latest, Dignifying Science, is a beautifully drawn series of
stories about women who made major contributions to science and
technology, but who have been largely forgotten..." (The
Independent - London, 12 December 1999)
