Chemical science has made major advances in the last few decades
and has gradually transformed in to a highly multidisciplinary
subject that is exciting academically and at the same time
beneficial to human kind. In this context, we owe much to the
foundations laid by great pioneers of chemistry who contributed new
knowledge and created new directions. This book presents the lives
and times of 21 great chemists starting from Lavoisier (18th
century) and ending with Sanger. Then, there are stories of the
great Faraday (19th century) and of the 20th century geniuses G N
Lewis and Linus Pauling. The material in the book is presented in
the form of stories describing important aspects of the lives of
these great personalities, besides highlighting their contributions
to chemistry. It is hoped that the book will provide enjoyable
reading and also inspiration to those who wish to understand the
secret of the creativity of these great chemists.
