作者简介

《居里夫人传(英文注释版)》详细叙述了居里夫人自强不息的一生，并着重描写居里夫妇的工作精神和处世态度。文字生动易读。Marie Curie(1867- 1934)was one of the most important women scientists in history, and she was one of the most influential scientists——man or woman——of the 20th century. Curie postulated that radiation wasan atomic property, a discovery that has led to significant scientific developments since. She was also the first person to use the term“radioactivity.” Her perseverance led to the discovery of two newelements, polonium and radium. This combination of creativity andperseverance netted her two Nobel Prizes. one in physics and the secondin chemistry. This book. however, looks at more than her scientificachievements. While Curie is often portrayed as a stern, one-dimensionalwoman so totally committed to her science that she was incapable ofcomplex emotions, the truth is that the opposite is the case. Marie Curie:A Biography covers her entire lifetime, beginning with herearly life and education in a Poland under the oppressive rule of the czarof Russia. The bookdiscusses all aspects——both personal and scientific——of her fascinating life.
