À propos de cet audio
Through family interviews, diaries, letters, and workbooks that had been sealed for over 60 years, Barbara Goldsmith reveals the Marie Curie behind the myth - an all-too-human woman struggling to balance a spectacular scientific career, a demanding family, the prejudice of society, and her own passionate nature. Obsessive Genius is a dazzling portrait of Curie, her amazing scientific success, and the price she paid for fame.
The best-selling, "excellent...poignant - and scientifically lucid - portrait" (New York Times Book Review) of the remarkable Marie Curie....
©2005 Barbara Goldsmith (P)2013 Audible, Inc.Ce que les critiques en disent
"Never a dull moment.... Goldsmith leads the reader through a wonderland of facts with just the right blend of science and story. In the end, the mystery of the great Madame [Curie] remains, but a deeper understanding of what she went through as a woman and a scientist shines as strong as her radium." ( San Francisco Chronicle)
"Bestselling historian Goldsmith incisively chronicles [Curie's] intensely dramatic life.... Her powerful portrait reveals a woman of great passion, genius, and pain who changed the world." ( Booklist)
