FOREMOST 100 DISCOVERIES IN SCIENCE

This fascinating book describes the most impactful 100 science discoveries over the course of recorded human history by the best and brightest in the world of science. It is as informative as it is inspiring.

These 100 discoveries, judiciously selected in this book amongst the list of potentially thousands of them have something in common. While advancing human knowledge, they have opened new horizons, have provided new insights, and have played a huge role in the the progress of human civilisation.

The book serves three important purposes. First, it   presents information on these key scientific discoveries and shows their impact on our thinking, understanding and advancement of knowledge. Second, it traces the original discovery and links it to the ensuing scientific progress and development. Third, it provides deep insights into the fascinating ‘process’ behind the scientific exploration. In short, the book deals with all the four critical issues of ‘what’, ‘why’, ‘how’ as well as ‘so what’, the last being particularly important, because it shows the huge impact that the scientific discovery has actually made on our civilisation.
